I’ve been looking for a replacement for the tote that I use for rodent resistant food storage. The 8 gallon Rubbermaid fit well in my truck tool box and also was a good fit in my Jeep between my drawer unit and my storage rack.
The tote worked fine (even if there are more “Expo” choices) but I disliked how much space you lose at the bottom. I repackage a lot of food items into repurposed metal contains and I was looking for something with straighter sides.
I found this on sale today at Sportsman’s House.
Regular $17.99, 20% off. This is the smallest of three? sizes.
Very similar dimensions. Longer which is fine, and only a bit taller, but ok for my needs.
The Plano has a deeper groove where the lid meets the body. I don’t need waterproof so I don’t think I’ll use any weatherstrip, but a round profile product would fit in there well.
