An excellent product: very large plastic boxes are hard to find. This one is ideal for storing our specialised and somewhat fragile equipment. Delivery was prompt.

Good product
Ordered extra Euro Containers 800 x 600 x 220mm. We are very happy with the ones we ordered several years ago, strong, robust, lightweight. The company is easy to deal with, clear communication.

Around half the price of everywhere else!
The Linbins were around half the price of other retailers, and they sell the appropriate dividers too which not many places do. Will definitely use again if required!

Great company to deal with
I have been buying my plastic shipping containers from Plastor for nearly 17 years and can say they have always offered a fantastic service with great quality products at the best prices! We have never needed to look elsewhere.

Prices are ok for the stuff you are ordering, but the level of customer service from the sales team I find to be poor, very rude and abrupt. ~Plus the delivery charges they add to the order is extremely high, this is why they can sell the items at a lower price.

Dear Reviewer,
I was surprised to read your review. As we are unsure of your identity, it is challenging to respond fully. However, I must emphasise that we do not tolerate rude or abrupt behaviour from our staff towards customers or anyone else. Such conduct is unheard of in our business, and I believe the vast majority of our customers would agree that our customer service is excellent. Nonetheless, we will investigate this matter. If you wish to discuss your experience further, please feel free to call me directly. My name is Neil, and I am a Director. I would be more than happy to speak with you.
Regarding our product prices, we are proud to offer high-quality products at competitive rates. We are primarily a business-to-business supplier specialising in bulk purchases. When purchasing in smaller quantities, such as single, the shipping costs can, but not always, make these items appear more expensive. This is due to the bulky nature of our products, which most couriers find very challenging to handle. Consequently, our prices reflect the carrier charges rather than an attempt to increase our profit.
For businesses that buy in bulk, our goods are typically shipped on pallets or in larger parcels, resulting in significant savings on shipping costs.
If you were seeking to purchase a wheelie bin, please be aware that we are currently experiencing issues with our wheelie bin supplier. They are currently charging high shipping fees to send bins directly from their factory, as couriers are reluctant to handle such large items. We are addressing this issue urgently to improve our customers' experience. The recent administration of Tuffnells, a major bulky parcel carrier, has further complicated matters, as few carriers are willing to handle bulky freight.
I invite you to contact me directly to discuss this matter further. We are committed to understanding and resolving any issues you have encountered. We strive to provide excellent service and value and would like the opportunity to demonstrate this to you.
Best regards,
Neil
Director
Excellent quality storage and customer service.
I placed a small order for storage boxes. They appear to be excellent quality and will be buying more. Discovered one of the boxes was damaged in transit some days later but after a brief call/email, a replacement was sent within 48 hours.
Can't fault the service, friendly and professional.

Very poor customer service
Very poor customer service. Ordered product almost 3 months ago and originally told expect delivery in 8 weeks. Over 10 weeks later I'm the one chasing Plastor for updates and I'm still waiting with no response from the team. Wouldn't use again.

Dear Helen,
Regarding your bespoke made-to-order cabinet. We are very sorry you feel this way and please understand this is not the normal experience for most of our customers at all, unfortunately service fell short for you on this occasion.
It must be stated that we did respond to all of your emails with the most up-to-date information we had from our supplier.
I have been informed you were also quoted 10 weeks (not 8?) and we are now in week 11. Your cabinet is bespoke and made-to-order, we were given the lead time from our supplier and to be honest we (Plastor) are not pleased with their delay (as it reflects unfairly on us and also not what you were expecting either).
The manufacturer of your trucks is in fact a leading one of its kind in the UK. The factory had a major fire and they are still finding their way with new premises. You can read about it here: https://redhillmanufacturing.co.uk/catching-up-on-the-last-12-months/
However, we were unaware they are powder coating your products off-site which seems to have caused the delay. Your goods have been built and are at the final stage.
I believe my colleague (Managing Director) has called you personally to apologise and inform you of the situation.
We will respond to all of your emails/calls and messages so please do not hesitate to contact us if you wish to. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused once again. We take all issues very seriously.

Initial contact great, products great. Customer service after they've taken your money... not so great.

Great customer service and sales personnel
Needed two different types of container and varying sizes of each type and needed them in under 5 working days. On-line it looked as if we couldn’t get quite a lot of the order in time but after calling their sales team a very helpful individual sorted for everything we needed and had it all delivered on time by just changing a few container colours which I readily agreed to. Very impressed and of course a knowledgeable human voice on the end of a telephone is always the best form of client service.

Quality Product, Fast Delivery on weekday orders
If you order at the weekend, it won't get picked up until the Monday at 8am fyi. Also when you order, they get back to you with the delivery cost and once you accept, they then create an invoice and provide a link to pay; it would be better if this could be automated but maybe this company is not that large yet.
Product arrived next day and was high quality, would definitely recommend.

Dear Matthew,
Thank you for taking the time to review Plastor and I am pleased to see you were happy with our service. :-)
The reason we quote shipping rather than being transactional online is to save our customers money. We are primarily a leading UK business-to-business supplier and many customers order boxes in bulk (by the hundreds and thousands), as well as, place orders for a multiple choice of items. To work out the shipping fairly, and cost effectively, we need to know how the goods are going to be packaged (on a pallet, number of parcels, location, weight etc). We have considered the fully transactional route many times but as it stands the way we operate is the most fair way of all. Plus, we get to speak to our customers which is not only nice, it gives us a chance to give them better options or better still, stop them from ordering the wrong item for their needs.
We look forward to serving you again!
Regards
Plastor Limited

Dear David,
I am very sorry to hear your containers haven't arrived - I find this rather strange indeed. As your review has come through late in the day I will have to find out more tomorrow, but please feel rest assured that I am now contacting my colleagues to find out what the situation is and we will get straight back to you. As long as these were in stock at the time they should have most definitely been with you now. However, if they weren't in stock then you should have been informed anyway (I can currently see available stock for your product of choice). This may also be a courier issue - if so we will contact them.
Once again, we are very sorry that this has happened with your order.
Please feel free to contact us if you would like to discuss sooner!
Kind regards
Neil Harris
Marketing Manager
