Good to Know
> 🧪 **Test before filling** - once assembled, close the lid and check for gaps. Some people spray water on the closed lid to test seals. Better to find a problem before cushions are inside. **What to store:** - Cushions and throws - Garden toys and sports kit - BBQ accessories - Garden tools - Pool equipment **What NOT to store:** - Food (attracts pests) - Electronics (humidity builds up) - Chemicals in direct sun (gets hot inside) **Positioning:** - Avoid low spots where water pools - Some shade extends box life - Easy access when carrying items
Frequently Asked Questions about Garden storage box assembly in Dawlish
Will the box really be waterproof?
Quality boxes from Keter, Suncast, and similar are genuinely waterproof when assembled correctly. The key is getting panels seated and lid aligned properly.
Can a storage box double as seating?
Many are designed to - check weight capacity. Boxes designed as bench seating hold 300-400kg. I'll make sure the structure is solid enough.
Where should I put it?
Near where you'll use what's inside. Cushion storage near seating, tools near the garden. Avoid low spots where water pools.
The lid doesn't stay up - can you fix it?
Usually. Most lid problems are failed gas struts or misaligned hinges. Gas struts are cheap to replace and make a huge difference.
