I'm looking for up to 50 of the Sterilite containers pictured on the left, I think they are 5 quarts. All I can find is the 6 quart pictured on the right, which is too tall for all the racks I've built. Does anyone Know where I can find some of the shorter ones, either new or used? Lids would be nice but are not priority. Thanks in advance! - Scott Wright
Your big problem is they are out of production.
The second problem is without a number you can't find them online.
Most likely they are clear view storage, unfortunately Sterilite ran two different model lines of similar sizes. Without a tag its impossible to say if that is in fact a 5 qt tub.
I would start with the 17XX series but the curvature of the top almost looks like that of the 19XX series, hard to say from the photo.
Is it a DIY rack? Otherwise many of the rack manufactures do in fact have spare tubs for sale, you just need to call.
Last option would be to have a plastic injection mold place do one off run...but this will be expensive.
I'm sorry to say but at some point you will have to move on to another tub. I prefer the Cambro tubs...
If it turns out to be a Sterilite 1952 send me a pm.
Cheers
