I have a number of the ubiquitous plastic tubs similar to these:

domestic use around the garden.
Has anyone found any that are longer-lasting, at a sensible
price?
I am not really happy to say "They're cheap, just send them to
landfill."
I thought it was just me that snapped the handles off them.
I have solved it by drilling a few holes in the sides and reinforcing
the handle with plastic coated gardening wire. I also use wire staples
to rejoin any splits in the sides.
Basically we shouldn't be filling them so full, but it happens...
