I was sweeping and gathering yet more fallen leaves which had arrived in the garden, when I found myself musing just how much energy, effort and materials are involved in maintaining an outside space. Pausing a while to admire my efforts before the next invasion, my gaze fell upon the Keter Garden Store which stoically sits in a corner and never needs tending???.
Why Would I Want a Great Lump of Plastic in My Garden?
This plastic storage box is unbelievably useful, and once in-situ needs no further attention than perhaps an annual wash down. I just use a jet washer as and when I blast off the patio area. No painting, no oiling, it just sits uncomplaining and protects anything from the elements that you care to chuck inside.

Advantages: Good style, ease of use, hard wearing Disadvantages: Price
We desperately needed something to store the ever-increasing boxes and tubs used for recycling. They took up too much space in the normal shed and to be honest I didn't want to traipse to the end of the garden to get rid of the recycling five times every day and at the same time we didn't want to have four large plastic boxes stored outside by the house as it was unsightly and would possibly end up with the plastics blowing everywhere in windy weather as the councils don't provide lids with their recycling boxes.

We wanted to buy a shed for the garden which is not very huge, so didn't want a very big shed that will take away the free space...
After looking on the internet for various options available - wooden, metal sheds etc decided to do got the Keter garden shed.
The shed is now available in quite a few places - Wickes, Argos and Costco - all for £90 which is a very good price I would say for the shed.
Packaging:
The shed is packed in flat-pack, which didn't fit in back side of my Honda Civic (even after folding the rear seats) so we had to remove the packaging and load individual pieces of the shed in the car and get rid of the packaging right at the shop.
