I started looking for Plano boxes my 'standard' way: contacting Planomolding by e-mail to know if they have distributors in Italy. Then I would have asked the distributor for retailers where to find Plano boxes. While waitng for an answer by Plano (...) (26 years ago, 17-Mar-99, to lugnet.storage)

(...) Actually, I have about a dozen of the 3600 series and only a couple of the 3700 series. Most of my sorted stuff resides in a half dozen Popular Mechanics storage bins (either 18 or 23 compartment). They are similar to the Akro-Mils brand only (...) (26 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.storage)

Check out the StowAway line of boxes from Plano. After reading the discussion on this list (thanks to whoever first recommended them!!), I went out and bought a dozen from my local WalMart. If you can't locate the website, try e-mailing the company (...) (26 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.storage)
