32 qt sterilite

Does anyone know anywhere to get them?? I'm getting sort of annoyed because I bought these AP racks assuming they were built to a model of tub that would be easy to find. But I've checked 7 different stores in my area now and no one carries them. So I have these very nice but very useless racks sitting in my snake room currently.

I see 32 qt sterillite tubs everytime I go to kmart. If you have a kmart in your area, check it out. Also, if no one has them you can always order them online. Possibly even cheaper than in the stores.

Bed, Bath and Beyond has always carried what I'm looking for.

Walmart or Target would be your next best bet.

I get mine at Wal Mart :confused:

i find mine at target..

the steralite ones are the ones with the purple handles.

The ones i have for my AP (economy) rack are the ones with the purple handles found at target. The ones with the green handles won't work for that rack.

At least thats what AP told me when i asked them :)

I get 34 at wal mart I just can't find the 41 qt tubs in the store most the time I still need about 8 of them.

The last 3 times I went to wal-mart, their tub selection wasn't that great. Super Target seems to have almost everything Sterilite.

I'm afraid to go to bed, bath and beyond. I'm scared I will get lost in the beyond section! :rofl:

You can order them from...

http://www.reptiletubs.com/

I've been to K-Mart, Target, Lowes, Home Depot, and 3 different Wal Marts (that's all there is within a 1 hour drive around here).

I guess I'll have to order them *sigh*

bed, bath and beyond have great selection of Iris here in NY LOL i'm gonna grab some extra for my RBI rack.

To the OT yes http://www.reptiletubs.com/ is a good source

So I tried calling BB&B and another Target. They don't even carry them. I don't understand why no one in this area carries them when other stores seem to!

Neither Target in my area even carry them. I've called and asked. I finally just spent a stupid amount ordering them online and they aren't even in stock. Grrrr

Walmart and target has discontinued the 32 qts and replaced them with the 28s. They are the same height and fit perfect in my rack.

I built my own rack to fit the tubs I could get locally. That being said I would not order a rack that didn't come with tubs already in it. I see multiple ads all the time, from small home made racks to huge online suppliers all including tubs.

I wish you luck finally getting your tubs and I would complain to AP and see why that didn't offer tubs either included or as an option.

AP states on their website that their racks don't come with tubs. They don't come assembled either.

I've never had a problem finding tubs for mine, and they do link you as to where to get them. :/ perhaps the OP's stores are out? I've seen it happen when they have a big sale on them.

True, but i for one wouldn't fork over 1000s for a rack where they cant include $5 tubs so the customer dont have to make a separate online order or hunt them down. One reason why everything i use is made by me with tubs available here.

Nope, I called. They don't carry them. They offered me many other sizes and models, but not a 32 qt sterilite. AP's site says that only Target carries them but apparently that is not true in all areas.

And this is why we are lucky that there are so many caging manufactures, someone out there will meet your needs at some point.

I can only suggest asking someone who has them to possibly ship them to you, or if you know you're traveling (i usually travel to several different states depending on what im doing for various things) stop in and look.

Personally, one of the first things I do when considering getting a new rack is making sure i can find replacement tubs by GOING TO THE STORE MYSELF and checking for them. Usually I can't find rubbermaid tubs.

Have you tried emailing AP and letting them know you're having a hard time? I've emailed them for all sorts of strange things and they're always giving me good, quick responses usually within a day.

Errr...right. Thanks. As I previously stated, I've already ordered them. Thank you for your unhelpful personal anecdote, though.
