FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the Large tub?
The Large Red Gorilla Flexible Tub measures approximately 31cm in height and 52cm in width (12.2 x 50.5 inches).
What is the maximum weight the tub can hold?
The product information does not specify a maximum weight limit, but it is designed for heavy-duty use. For best results and to maintain shape, distribute weight evenly and avoid overfilling.
Can this tub be used for food storage?
While it can be used for dry goods or for holding pet food, it is not specifically rated as food-grade. It is best suited for non-consumable items or for use with a liner if food contact is intended.
Is the lime green color UV resistant?
The material is designed for outdoor use, but prolonged direct sunlight may cause colors to fade over time. Extreme UV exposure is not recommended for maintaining the vibrancy of the lime green color.
How should I store the tub when not in use?
It can be stacked if you have multiple tubs, or stored on its side or upside down in a dry location. Its flexible nature means it can be stored in various spaces.
What other sizes are available?
Red Gorilla Flexible Tubs are available in Small (14L), Medium (26L), Large (55L), and X Large (75L) capacities.
Troubleshooting
Tub appears misshapen after heavy use.
Ensure the tub is placed on a level surface. If carrying extremely heavy loads, distribute the weight evenly and support the base. The material is designed to flex; it should return to its original shape once the load is removed.
Stubborn dirt or stains are difficult to remove.
Try soaking the affected area with warm water and a mild detergent for a short period before scrubbing gently with a soft cloth or sponge. For very persistent marks, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied and left to sit for a few minutes before rinsing.
Tub has a slight odor after storing certain materials.
Wash the tub thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Allow it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, preferably in sunlight, which can help neutralize odors.
