Just a tip for mono-tub lids.

Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I thought maybe it could help someone out as it will me.
I've noticed when looking at the many different plastic totes that most of the larger sized ones have colored lids.
So far I have been doing mini dub-tubs but plan on doing a larger bulk very soon. Also getting into edibles so I will be needing larger.
I also see that in the fabric section at my local wally they have several different thicknesses of the clear plastic on rolls.
It is sold by the foot and I believe the width is 36" (or larger). (wide enough to cover the large storage totes).
The plastic sheeting could be tightly secured by the thin elastic bungee cords.
The plastic is sold in very thin up very thick mil. (priced accordingly....lol.)
I figure it may be a solution for those having a hard time finding large totes with clear lids.
The plastic seems very durable and is clear, rather than opaque like drop clothes, etc.
It could be used over & over again...

Thanks for the tip. You can cut around the edges of the colored lid and use it to hold the plastic tight as well.

I like to recycle as mush as possible! There is plenty of clear plastic in this world for free. Please dont buy more!

Good idea Matt87 ... and I agree randoman , recycling is the better option! I haven't bought any as of yet. And I'll be on the lookout for some free stuff for sure. But when the time comes, I'll know where to get it if comes down to that...
