[Histonet] RE: Leica ASP basket transport

[Jones, Laura]

Not sure what your baskets look like, but we found "Rubbermaid-like" travel shoe boxes at Walmart that work really well for us.  They're deeper than what we found in the kitchen department.  Look by the luggage and travel stuff.   (We also haunt the plasticware sections of stores... :D)

Glad to know I'm not the only one who haunts the plasticware sections of stores looking for the ideal container for the lab!

We use some Rubbermaid containers for the Peloris and VIP baskets, but they are not fully 3" high. I suggest looking at Bed Bath and Beyond, Container Store, all supermarkets, etc. I looked for many months for the ideal container to hold our EM embedding resins bottles and finally found it at the Container Store.

Our lab has standardized all cassette racking into the Leica ASP 300 basket. For locations that ship back to the main lab I have not found a suitable hard plastic storage container that fits this basket. I performed an in-person search at home depot and lowes without success.

Looking to see what others are using for transport of this particular style of basket.

I am struggling to find plastic storage container that will stack 3 high on the hook.  Each basket is approx. 8x13x3 inches.

Thanks, Nick
