Milk Crate? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

easyday · 06-27-2013, 05:14 PM

Hey does anyone happen to have a square milk crate not the traditional rectangle one. I have 5 rectangle milk crates that I can trade for or if someone just needs a rectangle milk crate I have some they can have.

they sell square organizers but they are not nearly as strong . hope this helps . also you can try stationary stores .

I have a blue one I'll trade a rectangle one for. Like TJ said, It's not as durable but if you want it, take it. PM me and we'll meet up in DP or something.

Staples has them

Staples has the organizers or the actual square milk crates? I need the actual milk crate I had an organizer on my old yak, got rolled in the surf and it basically exploded and I lost 2 rods. and DanaPT I have a rectangle one you can have if you want it I got a bunch free form work.

The only place I found that had the actual milk crates that were square, was at West Marine. I needed one for my old kayak and found it there. Not sure if they still carry them because this was about a year ago. It would be worth a phone call to see if they still do. Hope this helps you out.

yes the rod leash ripped right through the crate. And I just got a pm from yotasan sent me a link for the container store and they have them.

WestMarine still has them in store usually, square and color blue only. A bit pricey at $20

kaya_one · 06-27-2013, 07:02 PM

Back in the day i used to get them from behind the supermarket and used them for a dirt bike stand. And for some reason no one was ever available to ask if it was ok to just take one.

Grainger sells them for 9 bucks 13x13 or there is one on the side of the 78 west after college still looked good when i drove by it this am

Free behind every grocery store

alanw · 06-27-2013, 11:33 PM

They aren't free behind the grocery store, you just get them for the 5 finger discount.
