METRO PLASTICS – LEADING STORAGE CONTAINER MANUFACTURERS IN AUSTRALIA
Metro Plastics is a leading Australian manufacturer of moulded plastic storage containers, retail food-grade packaging, and plastic homewares.
Our core business focuses on supplying made-to-order plastics. Our extensive product range includes storage containers, food-grade retail plastics, and plastic products for garden and outdoor use. Thanks to our commitment to innovation, exceptional customer service, and a wide product range, we currently supply many of the market leaders in Australia.
Metro Plastics manufactures and supplies directly to business-to-business wholesalers. We do not compete with direct distributors and therefore do not sell from a line card. We are among the leading plastic box manufacturers in Australia.
Simple, Strong Storage, Made Right Here in Sydney
We get it: home and workspaces get messy. But clutter doesn't have to stay that way. At Metro Plastics, we design and manufacture plastic storage boxes that are built to last, stack, and store without drama. From family homes to commercial warehouses, thousands trust us for one reason: we make storage easier.
And if you’re after storage containers in Sydney, you’ll want ones that don’t crack, warp, or vanish from stock when you need them. That’s why we keep things local, manufacturing here in New South Wales, supplying nationwide, and supporting households and businesses with tough, reliable plastic storage.
Types of Containers We Provide
If you're tidying a small cupboard or fitting out an entire storeroom, we’ve got a range of storage container options:
- Small, transparent containers for pantry, drawers, and stationery; perfect for quick access or compact organisation, including our popular 5L storage box.
- Mid-size tubs for wardrobe items, linen, and household tools.
- Bulk storage boxes for warehouse goods and packaging, including durable options like the 9L storage box, built for stacking and easy handling.
- Custom-sized bins for commercial or specialised use.
- Food-safe containers for catering and hospitality.
- Open-top crates and nesting tubs for transport or back-of-house use.
We understand that every space is different. That’s why we’ve built our range to work in homes, shops, offices, and sheds alike, with shapes and sizes that make sense.

What Makes Our Storage Boxes Better?
You don’t just want plastic for the sake of it. You want containers that stay shut, stack well, and look clean in your space. That’s where Metro Plastics has focused our designs.
Here’s what to expect from our plastic storage boxes:
- Tough builds made with high-grade, near-prime resins
- Sturdy handles for easy lifting and shifting
- Nesting designs to save space when not in use
- Broad lid coverage for better protection
- Clear options for visibility or solid colours for privacy
- Food-safe and BPA-free plastic options where needed, including solutions made from PET plastic bottle grade materials for safe food and liquid storage
Unlike cheap imports or short-lived discount store tubs, our tough storage containers in Sydney are meant to be used and reused, day after day, year after year.
Storage Boxes with Lids – Built for Everyday Use
A good lid is more than just a cover; it’s your first line of protection. Our storage boxes with lids are tight-fitting, durable, and easy to lift, keeping your contents protected from dust, pests, and moisture.
Common uses include:
- Under-bed storage for clothes, linens, and shoes
- Pantry and dry goods like rice, flour, or pulses
- Garage tools and auto supplies
- Hobby materials and crafting gear
- Business inventory and retail stock
Need storage boxes with lids that won’t buckle under load? We design with real-world storage needs in mind.
