UK - Anyone recommend a coolbox/lunch box

martinh78

Hi all, can anyone recommend a cool box? I might be looking at this the wrong way, so am open to other suggestions, hence the question I guess.

It can't be too big as it will be living in the works van with some everyday supplies in. It will be moved from van to van each day depending on the job, hence why nothing too big. I want it to hold a few bottles of water, some food tubs of protein powder, tins of tuna, snack bars, plastic cutlery etc, that sort of thing every day (for when I'm caught short at out on the road). Also it needs to have some room for any prepared sanwiches/salads etc that I might take each day?

The cooling feature isn't so important actually, it just needs to be large enough, maybe a locking lid, and a bit robust?

I currently use a coolbag rucksack but it's forever getting squashed etc and isn't very practical carting all of my emergency supplies and daily lunch in the one bag. As I say, a box would be ideal I think.

Mail order would be great as well.

Thanks in advance.

Not quite what I was thinking but I like the ideas so thanks - looks like a search fo Bento products is needed! If I find a larger box for my supplies, these bento products look great for my daily lunch. I'm fed-up with washing four or five containers of food each day!

Thanks

Try Lakeland?

Would this be any good for in the van? It doesn't say what size the cool bag section is though http://www.amazon.co.uk/DURAGADGET-Detachable-Car-Seat-Organiser-Additional/dp/B0044E3WYE/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1321434299&sr=8-9 Possibly in conjunction with a daily bento lunchbox.

Or an even more manly option http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stanley-Lunch-Thermos-Flask-Combo/dp/B004AVLB3U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1321434365&sr=8-1

I shall try Lakeland, we have one near us.


Ellycope, the organiser doesn't look any good for the van as we have a bulkhead behind the seats and it would be a pain to swap between vans...but I REALLY like the Stanley box - looks tough enough for the job ) That with some of the daily bento boxes inside it might just do the trick I think. Like it, thanks )
