I have lost count of the number of trugs I owned which began to split around the handles after only a couple of months. Not due to carrying anything heavy, just by holding the handles together.
Despite living by the old adage “buy cheap, buy twice” across most of my life, I’d never applied it to buying trugs before? Then I found 🌈 RAINBOW TRUGS 🌈 definitely a lot more expensive than the cheapies I’d bought previously BUT definitely worth every penny. There is an ingredient which acts like rubber in the composition, & whatever it is certainly works. Reading through the sales blurb I noticed they have even done weight testing to ensure a reliable product.
This 14kg is the perfect size for carrying around the garden when weeding, especially if you’ve reached “that” age where weight & manoeuvrability matter when you’re lugging weeds etc about the garden for a few hours.
I also bought 2 of the 30kg size as well & am just as pleased with them. Plenty big enough to put rose & shrub prunings in, strong enough for cut up tree branches & logs, without being cumbersome. Ideal size for carrying soil/compost too. 🌈 WITH NO SPLITTING ANYWHERE 🌈 Highly recommended. Just wish I had bought a lid for one of mine too, but didn’t notice them at the time. 01 May 2023 | Judith Just what I needed for mixing my own compost blends for specific plants. Good size to hold enough but not too big to move. I never give 5 stars in case a problem occurs later. 01 May 2023 | Judith Just what I needed. Colours are good to help find in garden or identify contents. 23 April 2023 | Laura Thank you so much for my product. What a fab find. Just what I needed for my horses. Fast delivery. Specially as you are only down the road from Me. Thank you. Will be using you again. 23 April 2023 | Sam I'm so impressed with the quality of these trugs and such a great colour too. I won't hesitate to buy again 19 April 2023 | Michael I do voluntary work at a local doctor's surgery. They provide a special place where people with leg problems (ulcers, etc) can attend a Leg Club in order to get treatment and just as importantly, meet other "members" socially. The Rainbow Trugs are the ideal size and flexibility (to hold bin liners) to have a small quantity of warm water that the nurses use to bathe the wounds. Rainbow Trugs are the ONLY company that have the size needed and the price and quality of the product is first class. 18 April 2023 | Julia Fabulous trugs, I’ve got several, they remain supple and are very strong. Easy to clean and have a different colour for each horse 12 March 2023 | Jean I'm pleased with the two trugs we bought. They seem strong and the handles look robust and are comfortable. They're headed for the allotment so will shortly see plenty of work! 28 February 2023 | Tayla Really lovely colour and great quality. Arrived very quickly. Only fault is the postage is very expensive 26 February 2023 | Mrs I bought 2 of these tubs as horse feed bowls as a trial. They seem very good quality and I love the colour. They were easy to order and delivered quickly 26 February 2023 | Mark I’m a scaffolder and trust me when I say I have gone through so many different buckets. But after purchasing rainbow trug buckets , absolutely class . There flexible , strong , and the handles brilliant still haven’t broke . Great buy 19 February 2023 | Kim Really strong looking little bucket that is exactly the shape and size I have used from other manufacturers in the past but can no longer find. So glad I found Rainbow Trugs as they have such a good range of colours (I colour code my horses feeds) and they are so much better quality than the ones I have had in the past - and at an affordable price. Please don’t stop making this size!! 13 February 2023 | Georgina These fun stickers are great for the trugs. I bought three different funny faces for our playroom trugs. They’re good quality, thick and sticky. Used the 3 for 2 offer 13 February 2023 | Georgina These fun stickers are great for the trugs. I bought three different funny faces for our playroom trugs.

Very happy with my purchase! Fabulous products at amazing prices 29 January 2023 | Alison Recently bought 3 x 14 litre tubs as horse feed tubs together with slight seconds lids (couldn't see why they were seconds they seemed perfect to me!) I've been really impressed with the quality of these tubs. They're great colours, very sturdy and SO easy to clean. A quick rinse, no brushing needed, they seem to have much smoother surfaces than much more expensive Red Gorilla tubs that I've been using. I was concerned (because the plastic is slightly more rigid) that during the recent really cold weather they may become a bit brittle but they've held up really well. Would not hesitate to recommend. Brilliant value for money. Well done Rainbow Tubs  15 January 2023 | Joanne I bought three of these trugs in different colours. I haven't used them much yet but they seem much better quality than my previous trug. I'm using one to store toys and the other two in the allotment/garden. Nice colours. 13 January 2023 | Lynn Fantastic colour, very sturdy, fast delivery, perfect purchase! 09 January 2023 | Emily The 45 litre trug is great, tough and flexible and a lovely colour. Used as a washing basket for a family of 5. Perfect! Perfect for dancing dinosaurs! 21 December 2022 | Elizabeth I buy the 25ltr ones as feed buckets for my very, very large Suffolk Punch. They fit his massive muzzle perfectly. Great products, can't recommend enough. 20 December 2022 | Elizabeth Very sturdy item, much better then the well known brand which distorts. Handles look very durable too. Ordered matching lid to make a useful item. Will use around the garden to carry compost etc. 20 December 2022 | Elizabeth Very sturdy item, much better then the well known brand which distorts. Handles look very durable too.

Ordered matching lid to make a useful item 27 November 2022 | Chris Good, solid construction and does exactly what’s asked of it. 21 November 2022 | Christine I ordered these and they arrived very quickly. I have to say they look brilliant, you'd have to get a magnifying glass out to find out why they are seconds. I'd definitely order again Gift in a Favourite Colour 20 November 2022 | Amanda Will brighten up my friend’s gardening activities and I like the ability to add a lid. Looks very good quality plus arrived promptly in a suitable cardboard box - lots of colours to choose from too. 16 November 2022 | Alan Excellent Strong well made Trug. Made in the UK from recyclable Plastic. You can't get better. Excellent Service, Would highly Recommend 15 November 2022 | Jane I bought these to make a rainbow garden. I haven't had them long enough to know how durable they are but the customer service with this company is outstanding. I rang for advice which was freely given with the product arriving marked where I should drill. They rang the day after delivery to check I understood everything. Marvellous well done! 11 November 2022 | Mrs We have several rescue cats, and the 30L trugs make ideal littler trays for them! We cut a u-shape out of one side leaving a 4” ‘step’ for access. They’re lightweight, easy to carry, and really easy to clean, and take up a smaller floor footprint than a large litter tray. Just perfect - I wish we’d thought of this years ago! Ordering and delivery was perfect. Great company, great product! Very pleased with purchase 09 November 2022 | Catherine The trug arrived very quickly and was well packaged. It makes an excellent laundry basket which I use indoors for dirty washing and then carry out to the washing line when it’s ready to hang out. 06 November 2022 | Paul Well made and robust trug. Particularly like the design of the handles. 01 November 2022 | Jennifer Just what a wanted quick delivery A very sturdy and lovely looking trug. 27 October 2022 | Catriona My 45l trug arrived just a few weeks ago. Prompt delivery. Currently using as my container for keeping my winter swimming gear but thinking of purchasing another soon for a linen basket. The handles look strong, not flimsy like reviews I read of other brands. Delighted with its appearance and would recommend for sure. 24 October 2022 | Sue Highly recommend quick delivery, good quality and strong, bought for horse feed buckets ,great for stacking . Would buy again. 23 October 2022 | Barbara These Trugs are of excellent quality making ideal horsefeed bowls. Strong, easy to clean and a good selection of colours available. I purchased 6 and postage was free so excellent price and service. I will purchase more for my livery yard. 19 October 2022 | Beryl Slight seconds but look fine to me. Invaluable to cover feed 17 October 2022 | David Nice to see a British environmentally minded company. Good size trug, nice and flexible. 02 October 2022 | Val I was so impressed with the quality of these feed buckets for my horses and the speed of the delivery was amazing.great value for money. 02 October 2022 | Dawn We use these tubs to make up our horses morning feeds, great size & very convenient with the matching lids. I have purchased before & they are good quality & last years, would highly recommend. Great for cold water swimming 27 September 2022 | Sara I bought this Trug & lid to carry my kit down to the beach when I go cold water swimming. My group bought one each, in a bulk order, and we all love them.
The large size means I can fit everything in the Trug when I go into the sea - dry robe, towelling robe, wooly hat, hot drink etc - with the lid secured on top. The lid keeps the rain out and stops my stuff getting ruined if a dog pees on it!
The lid doesn't fit inside the Trug, when carrying it with both handles together in one hand. I've remedied this by drilling a small hole on the side of my lid (not the top, else the rain will still come in) and attaching it to the Trug handle with a cable tie. The lid hangs off the side of the Trug and keeps my other hand free. (Perhaps a folding lid could be manufactured, to allow it to be carried inside - just a thought... )
The Trug is really flexible and seems very sturdy. The lid is made of difference material so is rigid but equally as strong feeling. Both materials take permanent vinyl decals well, allowing me to decorate mine.
Delivery was very quick - the day after I ordered it, I think.
I spent ages trying to find a lidded bucket for the beach and couldn't find another company selling them. I am therefore expecting lots of people to ask where I got it from!
In case it isn't implicit, I couldn't be more pleased and would highly recommend this company. Just what I was hoping for 29 August 2022 | Barbara Sturdy, great colour…..perfect! Thank you 28 August 2022 | Daniel Good quality, strong material and fast delivery 🔆👍🏻 23 August 2022 | Zoe I bought 4 of the 14 litre trug for my horses feed. They arrived the next day and are just perfect for the job! I also bought the lids which fit really well and will keep unwanted visitors out of the feeds!! 22 August 2022 | Colette Great product, strong and sturdy, just what I needed. Delivery was quick as well. 21 August 2022 | Anji The website is well designed with lots of key information. The only bubgbear with the site was the difficulty in selecting the delivery charge for London. The form wouldn't progress until I went back and then into the basket again. My trug was delivered quickly. I liked the note about the recycling of packaging and how to recycle the trug in future. I'm using the wide 25 litre trug to collect cold water from my rainfall shower head when I run it to warm water before showering. This water is then decanted into a bucket and taken downstairs to the garden to water the plants. 11 August 2022 | Joanne Great product, well made and very strong carry handles. Will be using as an ice bucket for 330ml beer bottles so very pleased with the size. Would highly recommend. 11 August 2022 | Joanne Great product, well made and much sturdier than trugs I’ve bought before from alternative suppliers. Very pleased, would highly recommend. 03 August 2022 | Karen This is a very spacious, sturdy trug that can take a lot of weight. We used it as an ice bucket for drinks at a family party and it's now going to become a toy basket. We also liked the fact that it is recyclable. 06 July 2022 | Lynne Just what we needed. Good quality and quick delivery. Many thanks 02 July 2022 | Ann Bought several trugs in different sizes for garden weeding etc but got this one (plus lid) to make a wee sandpit for my granddaughter and she loves it! The trugs are well made, the bright colours are really eye catching plus delivery was very prompt too. Highly recommended. 28 June 2022 | Helen Bought this along with some other sizes and couple of lids. They look and feel really sturdy. Fantastic range of colours (I chose duck egg blue) and made in the UK. Brilliant. Having lids as well is great. Never seen lids for trugs before. Seems to be a really good product and well priced. 28 June 2022 | Jean I love these. As my garden proves. I love containers so they help me water. This one will hold my things and the lid is perfect. It will have many uses. And be well loved 26 June 2022 | Martin very solid , extremely well made lids , good thick plastic ...perfect , customer services above and beyond ! Excellent product and service 23 June 2022 | Tracy Ordered 2 tubs and lids to use as ice buckets. Super quick delivery and excellent service. The tubs are top quality just what we were looking for. 19 June 2022 | Cliff As usual promt service and best quality trugs. Don't go anywhere else. 16 June 2022 | Jacqui The trug was of good quality, perfect size for weeding and very flexible so easy to empty. My only gripe is colour which is not what I was expecting. The illustration looks a lovely greeny-blue, what I think of as duck egg, but the trug was actually a bright powder blue with no hint of green. Hmm. 06 June 2022 | Claire These are incredibly durable and unlike so many others I bought in the past from other shops they do not crack and break up - this is the 2nd time I’ve bought them as I was so impressed the first time! fabulous quality, excellent service 25 May 2022 | E This is the 2nd time in 4 years that I've ordered from Rainbow Trugs. Quick and efficient dispatch with good communication. As for the trugs, well I've tried plenty but absolutely none are as good quality and long-lasting as these. They are flexible to a perfect extent and the handles (usually a weak spot) are extremely sturdy. I'm only having to order more as the ones from other brands are systematically cracking and breaking. Well worth the money as they don’t wear out despite plenty of use. Most of mine are used in the garden but I saved a couple which contain washing/bits and bobs. Duck Egg Blue Shallow Trug 15 May 2022 | Sharon I bought 2 of these excellent quality flexible trugs for quite a different purpose . . . To use as foot pools in hot weather for those of us who are a little less flexible at bending down to fill and empty garden paddling pools! These a absolutely ideal as they will take just enough water to keep your feet cool, and nice and lightweight to empty, too! . . . One for me and one for my 80+ years old mother! I would highly recommend these for this purpose! Perfect for Horse Feed Bowl 12 May 2022 | Karen Bought 2 of these trugs with their matching lids for my horse's feed. Their colour is exactly as shown on the website, they are a perfect size and being slightly deeper than other equestrian feed bowls, the food stays in the bowl rather than being shared with the floor! The lids are a perfect fit and keep mice out. Fantastic for craft mixing 11 May 2022 | Debbie I use these to mix and pour Jesmonite and they're really great. Perfect size for 2-3kg mixing and so easy to crack the dried mix away from the sides during cleanup. 09 May 2022 | Terry Really good product. Nice and sturdy,just right to grow my runner beans in. Great transaction arrived on time would highly recommend 09 May 2022 | Miranda These trugs make excellent and durable feed bowls for my horse who loves to kick his food around everywhere. Always a great service and I love the unique colours. 26 April 2022 | David Good quality sturdy ideal for the garden. 10 April 2022 | Adrian I bought these as I had previously purchased one. The quality is fantastic and much better than any I see in DIY chain stores and Garden Centres. 06 April 2022 | Jean Bought 3 of these as fire buckets for a live steam model railway. Nice bright red and a handy size for quickly dousing flames. Just what we needed. 22 February 2022 | Gillian This is just the job! I'm learning watercolour painting and wanted a water container for my brushes. This bucket is perfect..big enough and very well made. I bought the mini trugs as they're so handy! Excellent service as always- definitely recommend. 21 February 2022 | Jo Super quick delivery and fab item 21 February 2022 | Jo Fabulous item with awesome delivery! 20 February 2022 | Lesley Got 3 of these for Easter egg hunts. Bit larger than I estimated but that’s my fault as measurements are on the site. Lovely bright colours and there’ll be plenty of uses for them in the house and garden. 11 February 2022 | Margaret Delighted with my rainbow trug - it's very solid and also easy to keep clean - my only 'complaint' is that it's so shiny it shows up any bits of feed or hay! The horses sometimes use the lighter weight buckets as a pillow and they get really out of shape; I don't think there's any problem of that happening with my rainbow trug. 08 February 2022 | Angela Perfect fit, easy to lift on/off 08 February 2022 | Angela Sturdy material, lovely colour 08 February 2022 | Angela Good quality, beautiful sapphire blue colour 05 February 2022 | Vanessa Nice to have a more rigid trug as can carry with one handle. Time will tell how this extra rigidity will stand up to being picked up by my horse. Lid is a great idea and an absolute must when needing to leave feed soaking. Very efficient service and delivery with good communication. Will use again when I need anything else and would recommend 01 February 2022 | Suzanne Quality product and fast delivery 30 January 2022 | Jill I have used a smaller version of these before and found them very handy. These will be used around the garden for various tasks. 30 January 2022 | Jill I've had the smaller size of these before and found them very handy. These ones will be used in the garden for various tasks, 23 January 2022 | Jacqueline Would buy again 23 January 2022 | Jacqueline Excellent quality should last a long time - using for storing a few additional logs for our wood burner. Speedy delivery 23 January 2022 | Helen Great lid, works well, a pity that if you want a 25l trug with a matching lid you only have the option of green, when they have a Great range of colors in the trugs 23 January 2022 | Helen I use this to sit beside hot tub and store the floating cushions between use. Would have preferred another colour, but green is the only color with matching lids, they have lids that don't even have a trug colour to match, but don't sell lids that match the trugs, why????? 19 January 2022 | Melanie Absolutely delighted with my new trug's; they look great with the vibrant colours and are especially useful with the fitted lids / stacking capacity. My horses are currently thoroughly stress testing the trugs which involves vigorous kicking, rolling and standing on. So far they have shown absolutely no sign of wear and have kept their shape beautifully. A speedy and informative delivery, with excellent value and quality. Highest recommendation from me to anyone who will listen. 5 star products 5 star service 17 January 2022 | Jeanette Excellent quality, great communication, fast delivery highest possible recommendation. 28 December 2021 | Andrea Having bought new feed bowls I felt my horse deserved a new water bucket too. Can't fault these at all. 28 December 2021 | Andrea I bought these along with the 14l bowls, we have foxes visit the yard so these ensure that they can't get to my horses feed. They fit firmly in place and colour coordinated with the bowls or go for a contrast 28 December 2021 | Andrea These are just beautifully made, robust and the colour really pops! I bought these with the lids which fit lovely and snug. 24 December 2021 | Susan Super service as always, and quick dispatch too! All the usual high quality in a super handy size! Ideal for tack cleaning, poultice soaking and so many more things! EXCELLENT PRODUCT AND SERVICE 20 December 2021 | Richard Simply put it is as per the above - very high quality trugs, British made, a good price and delivered promptly. 15 December 2021 | Anita I love these trugs from Rainbow Trugs. I have several colours, and lids to match. Makes leaving feeds for the horses so much easier as they stack. I also have the large 45litre trugs with lids for gardening work. Ideal. They're tough, strong and flexible. My horse hasn't managed to break through the bottom of his as he has with the cheaper ones. Highly recommended. |
