Sterilite tubs in bulk

neilgolli Feb 06, 2005 03:43 PM

Anyone know where to get sterilite tubs in bulk. I'm looking for several hundred 12 quart tubs product #1254. I've contacted sterilite directly via their website 3 times with no response. Walmart sells these tubs for $1.97 which means they pay around $1.05 or less including shipping. Anyone that can help I'd greatly appreciate it....

Thanks Neil Golli

Btw, they are for this years coming boa and ball babies.

Here is a contact number for Sterilite head sales office:
1-800-225-1046

Make contact with them and give them the model number you are after. Then they will ask for your zip and tell you what stores they supply in your area. If they do not find any in your state ask them to do a US wide search and they will give you the largest companies they supply and then you'll have to look them up seperately.

Keep in mind that the 2 ladies that answer the phone are easily aggitated and have probably been doing the same job for 60 years. They will hang up on you if you've no patience.

I use the 1986LAB8 models that are 40 Qt and have the lockable handle that pulls up over the lid. The best ones out there IMO for the rack system I have. However all the major retailers quit selling them and I had to use the steps above to get in contact with a store on the East Coast that carries them.

Hope this helps,
Jeff & Starr

Great, thank you, I have been unable at this busy time of the year to track down a phone number... Also, thanks for the heads up on the grumpy old ladies that answer the phone....LOL I will call first thing monday morning and get the ball rolling.

BTW, this little guy is doing great, I have to get some new pictures uploaded but he is 3 for 3 with meals offered.
