Is there a distributor on the east coast for purchasing these tubs . Need about 75 V-18 tubs.

Nice try, and good luck finding them. Don't know how Rack dealers stay in business selling racks with no tubs. They advise Target, Walmart, and K-Mart. Tried them all in person and on-line and came up zero. I don't mind spending the bucks for a good rack, but at least sell tubs with the merchandise.

OOPS, Looks like you're in luck. Vision has them. Even with shipping they're worth it.

Vision makes them.

Rack mfgrs other than Vision are starting to build racks for Vision tubs for the reason that these tubs are available online and the tubs are very nice.

Iris makes great tubs as well and they are available from stores like The Container Store and Office Depot, etc. You'll see racks for Iris tubs, especially baby racks.

The only way I would buy a rack that did not come with the tubs is if the rack was made for Vision or Iris tubs. At least I know I can get those tubs online and quickly.

Target, Walmart, Container Store, and K-Mart in nyc do not carry anything close to a 32 qt size for the Vision Rack. Furthermore the tubs at Container store are very fragile (made in China, probably).

Give me names of companies that carry these racks. I do not care for BoaPhile, AP, or any other rack mfr that makes similar solid racks.

Next best thing is Freedom Breeder, since they will now sell most via fedex ground, in sections. Expensive yes, but they have the air circulation I want.
