Lifetime 80 gal. Outdoor Deck Storage Box

The instructions helped, but I had to go onto YouTube to understand how to fit the pieces together and it is not truly a one-person construction piece, I am 77 years old and the carton weighed over 40 pounds when delivered, so I had to take care bringing it inside. Once I started putting it together, I had to purchase tools (Must have Rubber Mallet; 7/16 in and 1/2 in wrenches and socket set with rachet. Make sure the pieces are not warm or hot from the weather, the resin will swell and get sticky and it makes the pieces hard to put together. You can manage the lid install alone, but you need to brace the lid upright against a wall or solid surface to screw down the bolts. I had to take breaks, take my time and pace myself to get it done. Now it is together and have it on my patio. It is a light tan color, so it blends into the concrete patio even though my complex is a light gray and white. Also, when you get the panels put together you must flip the box over and use the smallest crews to make sure the half-moon pieces that come through the bottom, do not slip back through the entry holes over time. These flaps do not screw into anything; they are just anchors to prevent the half-moon flap from slipping back out of the hole slot. The video on YouTube made it look like they bend down and crewed into the black underneath, but the screw just prevents the flap from moving up back through the entry hole. Good Luck!

I did have to assemble the box. I wasn’t aware of that when I ordered but assembly was easy and seems to be very solid when assembled. They aren’t completely waterproof but some ventilation may be good to prevent mold. I use mine for a dock box on a covered boat dock and it works great.

Looked long and hard for a deck box with good ratings for weather resistance for use as a parcel box on my front porch. Finally came across a review that mentioned Lifetime products. First deck box with flawless ratings I could find that had awesome scores for durability, water resistance and customer satisfaction. First shipment arrived with some damage to the lid. Lifetime was quick to send out a return shipment label for free return and immediate replacement. Second one arrived in perfect condition. Easy to put together, although instructions could have been more clear about how the lid hinge assembly went together. Once put together it went out on my porch and has been collecting all my shipments; dry and no more water damage. No porch pirates will see my packages either. It has a lockable lid as well. Love my Lifetime box!
