Where to get a plastic snake bin?
I currently have my ball python and dumerils boa in plastic sweater bins, they work great, very easy to clean, light weight for moving, retains heat and humidity very well, they are both growing and i need to upgrade to a permanent enclosure, i want to use the same type of enclosure but i cannot find a plastic bin big enough, im looking for one about 4 feet long and 2 feet wide mine are currently 3 feet long and 18 inches wide, i went to walmart and target and couldnt find one any bigger, any idea where i could get one? a store or online? This is a pic of what a plastic bin looks like

mine are not as tall and height isnt really a factor.
thanks
Yeah V175. I picked a few fro $25 each this last Christmas from Walmart. These are the Christmas tree storage. ReptileTubs.com carries then year round, but at a higher price plus shipping. My juvenile boas are in Sterilite 34-Qt ( lime green latches), many would say this is fine for a BP. Your 3ft x 18in will be good for the BP. Sterlite 105-QT(lime green latches) would be good to. Neodesha Plastics makes great cages. These are the only commercial cages I have used, since my parents used to work there, and my wife and some of my family does now. I will recommend Boaphile Plastics too. Though I haven’t bought cages from there I have gotten boas from Jeff, any that have done business with him will tell that customer service is above none.

Neodesha cages are plastic and very easy to clean. Look on a reptile supply website, like Big Apple Herps, or even PetSmart. Science supply sites like Carolina Biological Supply have cages like that too.
