Welcome
to the home of the UK's BEST
Milk Bottle Box
There are free-standing, wall mounted and lockable
versions.
I wanted to give up making these but customers won't let me!
Now that you have found this website please don't bother looking elsewhere.
Everyone who calls me says they spent AGES looking for this kind of
product, and were so relieved to find this one. So much better than
a cage or basket!
These are available to buy online from
www.milksafes.co.uk
Just look on the LHS for Protect Your Milk
These
wooden bottle boxes are hand made in Telford, Shropshire. They are saving
my customers between £5 and £25 every week in lost milk. Don't
give up - you CAN keep enjoying milk on your doorstep every day AND help
protect the services of your local milkman.
My
own original (of course I use one too) is now 5 years old, and still fighting
fit!
I've not lost even ONE bottle in all that time!
The model pictured clearly shows if it's empty or not, another model hides
the bottles completely.
This neat little box is just brilliant for milk bottles, and even
small parcels.
It will protect your milk from the heat of the summer sun,
from cats, birds and even thieves.
All
these units are constructed in 9mm, long lasting birch plywood (grade
B or S, often specified for boats). This has excellent weather resistance
and can take a lot of abuse. Nevertheless treating with some form of preservative
on ALL surfaces is strongly recommended to provide some stain resistance.
Roofing felt with stainless steel staples covers the lid, which is fixed
with 2 brass hinges. The weight of the lid is enough to protect the milk
bottles from prying birds and animals. On the lockable version the unit
is left unlocked until loaded, then with a twist of the lock it will lock
fast. The householder then opens it again with a key.

The
safe is great, I lined it with foil as you suggested and it works
a treat. The local cats can't get at the milk and my postman sometimes
uses it for small parcels - how versatile is that hahaha? |
