FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the trugs?

The small trug measures approximately Length 44 x Width 27 x Height 9cm (25cm tall including handle). The medium trug measures approximately Length 51 x Width 34 x Height 12cm (28cm tall including handle). Please note that measurements can vary slightly due to the natural materials used.

Can these trugs be used outdoors permanently?

These trugs are designed for garden use but are best stored indoors or in a sheltered area when not in use to prolong their lifespan and maintain their appearance. Prolonged exposure to harsh weather can degrade the natural willow.

Are these trugs waterproof?

No, the willow is not waterproof. They are suitable for carrying damp items like harvested vegetables, but should not be submerged in water or left out in heavy rain.

How much weight can each trug hold?

While designed to be sturdy, the exact weight capacity is not specified. They are suitable for typical loads of garden produce, tools, or household items. Avoid overloading them.

What does 'unpeeled willow' mean?

Unpeeled willow means the bark has been left on the willow branches used to construct the trug. This gives it a more rustic and natural appearance.

Can the color be guaranteed to match my decor?

Due to the natural dyeing and finishing processes, as well as the inherent variations in willow, the exact color and finish can vary. They are described as 'Brown' in color family, but may have subtle differences.

What is the weight of the trugs?

The product information states a weight of 1kg for the medium size trug, with the small size being lighter.

Troubleshooting

Trug appears misshapen upon arrival.

Gently reshape the willow while it is slightly damp, then allow it to air dry in the desired form. Slight variations are normal due to the natural material.

Color is different than expected.

Understand that natural willow varies in color and finish. This is a characteristic of the material and not a defect.

Willow seems dry or brittle.

You can lightly condition the willow with a natural oil (like linseed oil, applied sparingly) if it appears excessively dry, but avoid over-saturation.

Handles feel loose.

Check if the weave securing the handles is intact. If minor loosening occurs, it may be possible to carefully re-tuck or secure the willow strands. For significant damage, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These garden trugs require no assembly. They are ready for use straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: Compatible with standard gardening tools and harvested produce. Not designed for prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions or heavy, abrasive materials.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the willow, as this can damage the material.
  2. Drying: If the trugs become wet, allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent cracking or warping.
  3. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area when not in use.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the handles and weave for any signs of wear and tear. Minor repairs can often be made by re-weaving loose strands if skilled.
