Plastic trays for stacking boxes

JohnRB · Aug 5, 2021

This Winter, for the first time, I'm going to stack my supers and spare brood boxes in my garage. I will be sterilising with ethanoic acid and since the garage floor is concrete, which can be damaged by the acid, I am thinking I need some sort of plastic tray at the bottom of each stack. I've looked on Amazon and there are a couple of potential trays - but just thought I'd ask what other people use?

These are the trays I use for stacking supers while moving and extracting. They are tough and would do a good job for what you want. I think I found them on line for about £8.50 last time I bought them.

Yes... same as I use ... you often find that Garden Centres have a deal on them ... I bought 2 for £12 in my local garden centre a few weeks ago ... normally £7.99 each.
