I&#8217;ve found the 7.6-gallon variety are the perfect size to use as wash basins for handling all your dishes while camping. Water doesn&#8217;t slosh over the high sidewalls, yet they are still portable enough to carry to a dump station without too much effort. They also do double duty as carrying containers, and can nest (one inside the other) to save space. I have used several other containers at camp to wash dishes, most recently a plastic tote, which would bend as I carried it when full of water. I have also used collapsible sinks which are next to useless in my experience. I have not used other bus pans, but the ones I have from Rubbermaid are sturdy, well-made and seem to pretty much withstand almost anything I throw at them. Even though the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.samsclub.com\/shopping\/navigate.do?dest=5&#038;item=169412&#038;pCatg=3063\">Sam&#8217;s Club<\/a> web site says an individual pan costs $12, when I purchased mine at my local store, I paid the same price for a pair. I&#8217;ll likely get a couple more to keep tools together in the back of my truck.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Brad Reese<\/p>\n<p>Bus Boxes<br \/>\n$9<br \/>\nAvailable from <a href=\"http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/5km39g\">Ace Mart<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Manufactured by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rubbermaid.com\">Rubbermaid<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heavy-duty wash basins<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"0","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3357"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3357"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3357\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3357"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3357"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
