Why are Carry Barrels for yard waste so pricey?

I've noticed that Carry Barrels—the big green plastic bins designed for yard waste—cost around $70 each. What makes these containers so much more expensive compared to the cheapest plastic trash cans you can find at places like Walmart? I just don't get it!

Honestly, if the price is bothering you, why not just grab a big plastic trash bin from Walmart? That could save you some cash!

If weight is your concern, those huge plastic IKEA bags are a steal at about $2 each! They could work well in a pinch.

Interesting fact: around my area, a 60-gallon green Carry Barrel is actually cheaper than a 60-gallon gray trash can from Lowe’s by about $10! They might just be marked up at garden shops.

Honestly, sometimes it just feels like corporate greed! Companies know they can charge what they want because consumers keep paying.

I’m amazed at how cheap these things can be produced. If someone built a factory specifically for these, they could price them way lower!

You know, it's true that you usually get what you pay for with these things. I’m not an expert on Carry Barrels, but I do know a thing or two about plastics. Spending a bit more gets you features like UV stabilizers, which prevent them from breaking down in sunlight, thicker walls for durability, and sturdier handles. I remember the last time I tried a cheap bin for yard waste—the handle broke right off while I was hauling some nasty lawn clippings. Never again! Cheap gear leads to poor performance and a really frustrating experience. Invest a little and save yourself the trouble!
