Title: Hose Tray
Post by: Steve Weatherley on May 08, 2013, 08:44:59 pm

Looking for a box / tray to stand my hose reel in whilst it's in the back of my van to catch the leaks. I used to use the Slugis box from Ikea but they no longer stock it. Can someone help?

I had a double hose-reel tray made by this firm about 5 years ago - www.plasticwatertanks.co.uk - it is almost unbreakable and works really well. I empty it out about once a day and also stops them sliding around.

My Van is bone dry. ;D
