Product Information

Full details

The Really Useful 42L Storage Box is an essential organizational solution for homeowners, office managers, and workshop enthusiasts who need a heavy-duty, reliable way to declutter their space. Its primary benefit is the combination of an impact-resistant, clear body and a secure clip-lock lid that keeps your belongings protected from environmental hazards like dust and moisture; however, users should note that the rigid plastic construction is not flexible, meaning it will not accommodate items that strictly exceed its internal dimensions.

FAQs

Are these boxes waterproof?

The lid clips provide a secure seal against dust and moisture, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.

What are the exact dimensions?

Each box measures 500mm x 440mm x 310mm.

Can I store these in an unheated garage?

Yes, the heavy-duty plastic is designed to withstand a range of temperatures, making it suitable for garages and workshops.

Are the lids interchangeable?

Yes, these 42L boxes utilize a standard Really Useful Box lid size compatible with other boxes of the same range.

How much weight can the boxes hold?

They are designed for heavy-duty use, but it is recommended to keep the heaviest items at the bottom of the stack to maintain stability.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to click into place

Ensure the box is not overfilled; if contents push against the lid, the clips cannot lock correctly.

Cloudy appearance on plastic surface

Clean with a mild plastic cleaner or warm soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals or solvents that can degrade the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Transparent design allows for quick inventory checks
  • Heavy-duty construction is durable and impact-resistant
  • Secure locking clips provide peace of mind
  • Stackable design optimizes storage space
  • Suitable for a wide variety of environments from homes to workshops

Cons

  • Rigid material provides no 'give' for overstuffing
  • Lid clips can be tight to open for those with limited hand strength
  • Larger footprint may not fit under standard low-clearance furniture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the boxes is straightforward as they arrive fully assembled. To prepare them for use, wipe the interior with a damp cloth to remove any manufacturing residue. When stacking, ensure the boxes are placed on a level, solid surface to prevent tipping. While the plastic is durable, it is not fireproof or entirely airtight; do not store items requiring vacuum-sealed conditions. For care, simply clean with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can scratch the clear surface and reduce visibility over time. Always check that the side clips have 'clicked' securely into place before attempting to lift the box by the handles.
