Original use
Corner Tube Boxes are designed for moving vegetables,
and as you know,
some vegetables are quite heavy,
and they often travel long distances by lorry and ferry.

Great Design
Although designed for single use - i.e. non-returnable -,
and to the lightest weight to strength ratio possible,
they are a very clever design concept,
last for years given CommonZense care,
and have hundreds of uses
in the home and garden, business, hortculture and farm.

Regular Supply
Although vegetables are seasonal,
CZ4M has the means to collect boxes on a regular basis,
subject to demand,
and available storage space.

Why does CZ4M call them CORNER TUBE BOXES?
Basics
Each corner has a vertical tube,
so we call them CORNER TUBE Boxes.
The tubes provide the vertical strength
that transmits weight to the ground.

The tubes provide the vertical strength
that transmits weight to the ground.
Stacking
The top and bottom of each corner tube
act as locators for the box above and below,
allowing them to lock together -
simple, but effective.

Net
Construction
The sides and base of Corner Tube Boxes
are constructed like a net attached to tubes.
This means that localised damage
often does not affect overall strength,
unless the box is abused.

EXPERIENCE OF COMMONZENSE CARE OF BOXES
CZ4M's experience
CZ4M has used these types of boxes for 20 years,
and by following simple CommonZense rules for use,
damage is usually both rare and minor.
We value all our boxes,
so we take great care of them!

CommonZense!
If you subject any box to undue stress,
first, by overloading them,
and secondly, not stacking neatly on a level surface,
something may well give way.
Just use CommonZense!

EXPERIENCE OF ABUSE OF BOXES

The Hard Way?
One customer does house clearances,
and bought 200 of the 500 x 300 mm footprint,
and initially ignored the basic rules,
reported damaging a small number of boxes.

We all learn from mistakes,
and luckily, this was not an expensive one.

COMMONZENSE RULES FOR USE OF CORNER TUBE BOXES
////////
START WITH A SOLID FOUNDATION
1
Stack your boxes on a hard flat surface.
They really dislike not being vertical.
It takes a moment to achieve,
but it is worth the time.

KEEP WEIGHT LOW DOWN
1
Keep heavy weight low in your stack.
2
We sometimes put VERY heavy weight in our bottom box,
such as large tools and equipment,
perhaps stored in smaller boxes,
but NEVER to be lifted as one box.
This puts very heavy weight right on the floor -
we sometimes cut the base of the box out.

Any box above that
must be packed sensibly,
depending on the weight of the items to store,
and the footprint of the box.
