Carlisle FoodService Products 4401003 Comfort Curve Bus Box/Tote Box, 5" Deep, Black

Carlisle FoodService Products 4401003 Comfort Curve Bus Box/Tote Box, 5″ Deep, Black

More Info


Highlighted Features
  • Ideal for bussing tables, carrying dishes or other utility tasks in a food service environment
  • Reinforced rims reduce bending, bowing and breaking protecting your tableware
  • Molded in comfort curve handles easy and secure handling
  • Smooth interior and dishwasher safe for easy cleaning
  • Integrated stacking lugs for efficient, jam-free stacking


Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

I use two similar bus tubs [Note: Mine are a different model from a different manufacturer and different specs] on brew day and I find them invaluable.  I keep one below my March Pump setup.  It catches drips and also offers a place to store wet items such as stirring spoons, mash paddles, my mash stirring whisk and my equally invaluable 1 gallon pitchers.  I reserve the other tub for clean and dry items.  Having two of these helps me keep dry/clean and wet/dirty items separate and means less lugging stuff around on brew day.

See: Bus Tubs for Brew Day & Beyond – Save Time and Effort When You Homebrew

Another potential use: ice down your favorite beverages for get-togethers.

I use two similar bus tubs [Note: Mine are a different model from a different manufacturer and different specs] on brew day and I find them invaluable.  I keep one below my March Pump setup.  It catches drips and also offers a place to store wet items such as stirring spoons, mash paddles, my mash stirring whisk and my equally invaluable 1 gallon pitchers.  I reserve the other tub for clean and dry items.  Having two of these helps me keep dry/clean and wet/dirty items separate and means less lugging stuff around on brew day.
