Is a 110-qt plastic bin too big for an adult female?

Dimensions: Length: 37.75 "; Width: 19.5 "; Depth: 20.25 "

I dont want to use newspaper. I was thinking of forest bed or something like that. What bedding do you guys/gals use?

Thanks,
Tom

I have a lot of those tubs. I just haven't got around to building a rack for them yet. If you're worried about it being too big, just supply a hide box. Even in a V70 tub, a hide box is useful.

I live in South Florida, humidity isn't an issue here, except in winter when I run a little heat.
