Whiz, Bang, Pop – Reusable Plastic Crates for Bonfire Night

It never ceases to amaze us at how many uses our staff and our customers find for our reusable plastic crates. This week, it was bought to our attention that an organisation arranging a fireworks display for Bonfire night will be using some of our moving crates to store their fireworks in before the show.

Apparently the durable, waterproof design, complete with integrated lid ensures that moisture won’t get into the fireworks and ruin them before they’re lit at the event. Clever thinking!

We’re always interested to know how our packing crates are being used so if you have an innovative idea of a way to use our crates, please let us know by contacting us.

Easycrates for Events

The summer may be well and truly over but that means it’s time to begin looking forward to the Autumn/Winter party season. At Easycrate we understand that as an event organiser, one of the biggest headaches you face is moving and storing all of the pieces needed for a particular event, especially when overseeing multiple events in a short space of time. Easycrate’s plastic crate hire service can be an invaluable tool relieving these stresses, providing a simple and secure way of storing and moving items.   

The durability and flexibility of crates mean that they can be used for every aspect of event hire from transporting food; wine and cooking equipment, to holding decorations; linens and party favours.

Particularly with large events, it’s all too easy to lose track of boxes and their contents. For this reason we can provide numbered security seals to keep your crates contents protected and labels for you to list and keep track of the items inside.

Crates are also incredibly easy to transport between sites and move when on location. They can easily fit into a car, or be stacked in a van or lorry. We can also provide rubber topped skates or trolleys to help move the crates easily around the site.  

Most importantly, we can deliver and pick up the crates when and where you want! This means that you won’t have the hassle of finding somewhere to store the crates when not in use, or transporting them back to head office from an event venue for collection when no longer needed.  

For more information on how Easycrate hire can benefit your event please visit our website, email, or call us free on 0800 027 2665.

 

 

Reusable Plastic Crates for the Garage

Over the summer months, your garage may have become a bit of a dumping ground for items that won’t fit into the house or shed. This may include hose pipes, outdoor toys, gardening equipment and more. Now the summer is over, it’s time to re-organise your garage to make sure everything is properly stored whilst still being easy to access if required.

In order to undertake this immense task, we recommend using reusable plastic crates. These are durable, waterproof and come in a range of different sizes which allow you to store everything from tools to toys with ease. Thanks to the integrated lids, they are also stackable to make the most of your storage space.

To ensure everything is easy to find, we also offer a range of labels too. For more information about purchasing our reusable crates, please contact us on 0800 027 2665.

Reusable Plastic Crates for Post-Summer Storage

Welcome to September. Although at EasyCrate we welcome autumn with open arms, we’re afraid to see the back of the summer season. Warm temperatures have been replaced by a nip in the air and it’s no longer possible to leave the house without some form of sweater or light jacket in hand. It’s therefore time to switch from your high-summer wardrobe of shorts and swimsuits to your transitional wardrobe which will incorporate jumpers, boots and winter woollies.

There are a range of options for putting your summer clothing into storage for the next year – you can pack them away in boxes, suitcases, vacuum bags or bin bags and store them away in cupboards, the attic, the garage or the basement. However if you want to see your clothes in good condition next year, none of these options are recommended. Boxes and suitcases can let in insects such as moths which can eat away at your clothes whilst both options may also leave you clothing susceptible to mould if they get damp whilst in storage. Vacuum bags won’t let your clothes air and may permanently crease some fabrics whilst bin bags can cause staining on your clothing due to the chemicals used in their production.

To ensure that your clothing comes out of storage ready to wear next summer, we recommend thoroughly cleaning them, rolling them and putting them in our reusable plastic crates. These are durable, feature integrated lids to make them suitable for stacking and are watertight.

At EasyCrate we offer rental crates or crates which can be purchased depending on your needs. For more information or a quote, please contact us or call us on 0800 027 2665.
