Guest Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 We are looking for a way of storing resources in our outdoor area. I was thinking of getting plastic storage chests/cupboards designed for gardens. Does anybody have any better ideas, any advice or catalogues/internet addresses I can go to for this? Thank you very much, Ruthanne
Guest Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 We're looking at the same thing so I'll be interested by peoples replies.
dublinbay Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 We bought two of those garden storage sheds from Argos. Heavy duty plastic with two doors at the front with a lift up lid on top. They hold lots and lots of stuff and our children like playing inside when they've emptied them. Need to supply your own padlock.
mps09 Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 We bought a set of cheap plastic boxes with lids and on wheels from Argos which I thought would be good for storage, one for bats and balls, one for sand toys, one for water, etc. Easy to pull out of the shed, move around outside as necessary, easy to see what's inside...., etc. My advice? DON'T GO FOR CHEAP PLASTIC BOXES, The children bang them around and they break really easily - seems obvious now but the idea was good. So I'd be interested in any better ideas!
SueJ Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Ditto dublinbay and no problems to report. Because the front doors open out it is easy to get to things without lots of lifting too.
Guest Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 I think I'll get them ordered then - they've got some money off in argos at the mo so i'll get our administrator on the case on monday!
