I take your point, although they do make non-archival boxes as well, which
would be cheaper. None of the ready made boxes in other catalogues, such as
PEL and Conservation Resources, are close to the depth specified.

Subject: RE: Archive boxes
Ryder's boxes are relatively expensive though, for permanent archival
storage. They also take 3-4 weeks to be made (I know, I'm waiting now!)
Perhaps Barbara wants a more temporary records management solution? Not
that I have one I'm afraid...
>From Health and Safety point of view, will not a box of Barbara's dimensions
(40cm wide, 60cm long and 56cm deep) end up very heavy? Though perhaps its
envisaged contents just is a very heavy item and there is nothing one can do
