Ok you guys I just found out about a thing called the Eurobox and now I'm really upset that we don't have them over here in North America.
Modularized, standardized, stackable totes.
AI6YR Ben@tezoatlipoca So, these exist in the US, but apparently are owned by some kind of crate cartel, and are only provided to "members", ie grocery store chains, produce vendors, etc. And require some kind of subscription membership. Very standard across companies, collapsible crates, all the same size. Reusable, etc.

I have 1, that's "one", eurobox folding stackable crate.
40x30x17cm
love it, very strong, well built.
want many more, you know, for my #cargobike.
then I found some! Yay!
bought 16, complete with storage bags, some 'soft cooler' inserts, etc, to use for catering runs (when I was still doing that on my bike)
good price too!
but they were not that, at all.
serviceable, but awkwardly sized, flimsy, facsimiles from China.
Oh well
@cpm @tezoatlipoca The IFCO's are 40x60xheight cm (with varying heights). At least the one I ran across, lol.
@ai6yr
yes
the 40x60xX still nest with the 40x30xX
that's the beauty of that system.
And
*AND*
they publish stacking height:weight parameters
good stuff
further
for food:ag
they go right through that big hobart washer:steam sterilizer
@tezoatlipoca
@cpm @tezoatlipoca Oooh, nice! Is that just strapped down to a rack? Or is it secured in another way?
