Versatile vintage storage unit - £50


BigED

Recommended Posts

For sale, a late-20th century pigeon hole storage unit.  

Not sure of the age but possibly the 1980s. This unit has had a life before us and gathered some scuffs and scratches but it is in good condition. It has very sturdy wooden shelves, with veneered edges, and a hardboard backing panel.  It is a bespoke, one-off  item, not IKEA or similar.

The 24 compartments offer lots of practical storage space perfect for keeping a workshop, shed or garage well-organised. We’ve been using it as storage for wood-working tools and DIY bits and pieces - it has served us very well.

It could also be used as a display unit. The unit is great as it is but it would also scrub up well with a little tlc and paint. 

Take note, the compartments aren’t quite large enough for vinyl but they are perfectly-sized for many books, vases, plants, toys, hobby/craft equipment, tools and so on. 

Dimensions

Width: 122cm (6 ft) 

Height: 192cm (6 ft 3.5 ins) including base plinth

Depth: 30.2cm (just over 1 ft)

Internal dimensions of individual bays: 28.9cm square (just under 11.5 ins square)

Sadly, we can’t deliver so you will need a van (please make sure of the dimensions if you are hiring one). It is heavy but my girlfriend and I managed to move it successfully out of a hire van and into our ground floor workshop room with the help of a dolly (which you are welcome to use helping to move it into your vehicle). Useful though it is, we have to sell as we’re hoping to start some building works in the near future and need to clear the room.

Collection from Forest Hill, SE23 2ET.

Price: £50

This wooden storage unit is available.

Suitable for home, shop, workshop or garage.

If you are interested please check the measurements first - make sure you can get the item into the van you will be using, and make sure you will be able to get it into your home and manoeuvre it into the right room and place.  It's a big item, bespoke-made and not flat pack.

Price £50, collection only from Forest, Hill SE23 2ET.  You will need a van and two people to move it.  I can help at this end.  Evenings and weekends preferred but can be flexible.

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters uo north. They also happened to b e leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about hisolitics. Corbynmania was thing but it was also the making of his downfall.
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
