Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter with your storage bin.
5.1 Bins Stuck Together
- Occasionally, multiple bins may become tightly nested during shipping.
- To separate, gently twist the bins while pulling them apart. Avoid excessive force to prevent cracking.
- If extremely stubborn, try applying a small amount of warm, soapy water to the edges where they meet, which may help reduce friction.
5.2 Items Not Fitting as Expected
- While the outer dimensions are 12" x 10" x 8" high, the internal bottom dimensions are 11.2" x 9.2" due to the tapered design.
- Always measure your specific items against the internal dimensions to ensure a proper fit, especially for flat items like scrapbook paper or large notebooks.
