A solid, large-format plastic packing crate with an attached lid — the kind of thing that quietly holds a production together. Whether you’re storing props between setups, keeping tools organised in the truck, or corralling catering supplies on a longer shoot day, a good crate makes life on set noticeably easier.

Robust enough for the rigours of a working production, these crates stack cleanly and won’t take up unnecessary space when empty. Useful across departments — from art and props to grip and production — and worth grabbing alongside your main equipment hire whenever you need reliable, practical storage on location.
