My guide to choosing the correct tray storage units for the classroom
In every single classroom in every single school up and down the country I can guarantee each and every educational establishment has a number of tray storage units in many different sizes and configurations. There are so many to choose from how do you know which ones to pick? Which ones offer the best value for money? And just as importantly which ones are built to last?
It does sometimes amuse (perhaps amuse is the wrong word how about perplex) me that the price seems to be the first thing that seems to influence the purchase. But after three decades in the educational supplies business I would whole heartedly recommend focusing on "value for money" rather than the cheapest available product. Now of course I am going to guide you to the products that we sell on our website (it goes without saying) but even if you decide to make your purchase elsewhere I would suggest that some homework (pardon the pun) is undertaken before you make your purchase. So below is some of the things to consider
Not all storage tray units are the same!
Its hard not focus on price when school budgets are being stretched and stretched but believe me there are some "cheaper end" units out there that simply aren't worth spending your much needed budgets on.
Did you know that a number of the more economical (cheap) units on sale actually will be delivered flat packed. Yes that's correct a DIY storage tray unit
Focus on quality
You need to focus on quality rather than simply the price of a unit. You want a unit or units that are going to stand the sands of time. This item is going to be used day in day out so the unit needs to be of good quality, is durable and bulit to last. If the tray unit you are requiring is a mobile one just check out the quality of the castors! The last thing you need is the castors breaking
Safety
Safety should be high on your list when making your selection. Some units have square edging which can cause accidents and injuries particularly if the tray storage unit is located in a nursery or early years setting. Choose one with rounded edges for younger childrens areas.
Easy to clean & maintain
Most of these products are purchased for early years settings and we all know that children can be messy - so make sure you select a product that is easy to clean
Guarantee
Product guarantees vary so ensure you select the product with the longest guarantee - you will thank me in the long run
Right I have bleated on enough about ensuring you choose the correct product range for your needs so its time to look at the benefits of using storage tray units (or in the case of the image above - baskets)
- Storage trays promote a tidy and efficient learning environment
- They are fantastic for storing everyday classroom resources
- You can easily organise materials such as art supplies, craft products and stationery supplies
- They are available in a wide range of sizes and types so you can find a solution to all your storage needs
- Most of them are mobile meaning they can be moved easily around the classroom or even from one room to another
