I say you fellows; here's one I made earlier!


These 'Food Waste' boxes have been appearing all over the place. They were originally delivered to each home, and simply left on the doorstep in advance of the new food waste bins being inaugurated at the end of this month (March).

Since then I have seen them all over the place. It looks as if people simply don't want them, and are discarding them!


This particular one I found by the big dustbins, and I rescued it. Someone had taken the plastic bags (that comes with them), and chucked the actual container itself.

So, what does one do with a spare container? One makes a 'Tuck Box' of course. It will be perfect for use in the car, on long journeys.

Appropriate 'Billy Bunter' decoration was completed by group effort.

Verdict: 10/10

They're lovely boxes. You'd think if they're not used for their true purpose people would find them very handy for storage.
I can think of all sorts of treasures I could hoard.
They'll make a jolly tuck box

Exactly. I cannot understand why people are throwing them away. Someone suggested they'd all bought their own ones previously (as did I).

What a jolly wheeze!

It never fails to amaze me what people chuck away without a thought. As you say, it would make a great tuck box, or any other sort of storage box.

I should say so!

Even if you don't intend to use it for its intended purpose, it's still a good box. People are crazy
