Hi all

Anyone know of a cheap supplier of decent 10l square or rectangle buckets, preferably not white?

Oipps is now invopak and a £350 minium order
Lincs products looks to be closed down

Both of these were around £3.20 to £3.50 a 10l bucket and had camo or olive, struggling to find similar

Cheers

Can't comment on quality or service but take a look at buybuckets.co.uk (sorry I'm don't have the power of the linky poo). Seem to have a wide range of bucket shapes and sizes at good prices

Thanks both

Already ruled out buybuckets as they only have white with plastic handles and they're expensive.

Bucket man on ebay does not have 10l square

Got a set of black square 17 ltr buckets from Bucketman on eBay. Very good prompt service.

They do the job fine but the lids aren't reinforced like some fishing buckets and the handles are plastic. If the handles really bother you and you are a bit handy and don't mind the faff, you can buy cheap builders buckets for around £1.50 from Screwfix, B&Q etc and swap the galvanised steel wire handles over so you get a good strong bucket for less than half the price of a carp taxed one. Use a bit of blue polyproplene cord on the builders buckets and they are still a usable household item so no money wasted

I had a lid blow away during a storm so when I ordered some more I asked if he could include a spare lid which he did FOC 👍

Invo mentioned in my first post, minimum £350 order

Bucket man hasn't got 10l listings that I can see, but if cheap enough then the plastic handles are not a deal breaker
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
