Pelican 0550 Transport Reviews

Massive Storage

By Bob
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2010-07-07

Whether for storage or transport, this case is one of the largest of its type on the market. It does take a while to get it, but it is up to the usual level of quality expected out of Pelican products. We are using this particular model for long-term dry storage of photographic slides, film negatives, prints and digital storage media, of which it will hold plenty. It is quite heavy, which is to be expected, but has casters available if you need, and handles that should support quite a load. It would also make an excellent footlocker.
