Nesting Plastic Storage Crates
Richmond’s nesting plastic storage crates are designed for efficient storage, transport and materials handling across warehouses, logistics operations, workshops and manufacturing plants. These plastic storage crates provide a practical solution for businesses that need durable, reusable containers for stock movement, picking and packing, and general workplace organisation.
Unlike standard plastic crates, nesting plastic crates are designed to fit inside each other when empty. This space-saving design helps reduce storage footprint and improves return transport efficiency. Available in multiple sizes, including popular 13.5L nesting crates and 22.7L nesting crates, these crates suit a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

Plastic Crates for Storage, Transport & Materials Handling
Nesting plastic crates are widely used for equipment movement, stock handling and transport tasks across commercial and industrial workplaces. Their lightweight yet durable construction makes them suitable for repetitive handling in warehouses, retail stockrooms and distribution centres.
These plastic storage crates support efficient workflow by improving organisation, reducing manual handling effort and optimising storage space when crates are not in use. For operations that also require stacking capability, Richmond offers complementary stackable crates and combined stack-and-nest solutions.
