Default Storage Boxes Similar to old Rubbermaid -- where buy ?


Up until about two years ago, Rubbermaid made large folding lid storage
boxes ( maybe around 40-50 gallon?) that were real handy for storage
of things around the house. They also made various sizes of smaller
boxes, with slip-on tops.

The products made by Rubbermaid now are extremely flimsy, very thin plastic
that literally bends almost in half when you pick it up. Most of these
boxes made now are almost useless for heavy storage, and if left out in the
cold, will crack in the winter.

Does anyone know where I could find **similar** boxes today? Or, is there
a "list" somewhere where I could find someone who may have some of these
older, studier Rubbermaid boxes around not being used, that they would sell
?? Where would I find such a source? I have often wondered if there was
a sort of "ebay in reverse", where you could list what you are LOOKING for
(instead of things for sale).

If anyone can answer some of these questions, I would apppreciate it very
much !!


Thank YOu !!
