| None that I know of. China is the heartland of plastic pot manufacturing these days. | |

Old Town Fiberglass is 100% made in America www.oldtownfiberglass.com
i also believe Tournesol and Wesnic may be, but you would have to verify with them. www.tournesolsiteworks.com www.wesnic.com |

| I knew that Vista were made in the USA way back when, but didn't realize these all still are. Now I can feel politically correct and patriotic as well as satisfied as a customer when I buy your stuff! | |

does it bother anyone else when someone asks for help and then doesn't bother to chime in afterwards or even say "thank you dawg" for sharing?
or am i the only one who had parents that taught me to say "thanks" |

Calm down Alex.
I'm not on this site regularly. I check back every so often - hardly a reason to call someone unappreciative. Your rant comes across as a bit whiney. Thank you for taking the time to post. I did look into the companies you posted. Although limited on what's available, at least it's American made. Melanie: Thank you, I also looked into your info and they are American made. |

not "whiney" at all.
its just that usually when one posts a request for a source, one needs the information pretty quickly! it took you ten days to return so guess you didnt need the info quickly btw there are hundreds of styles and sizes between the three sites i suggested, more if you include newpro what exactly were you looking for? |

| I was hoping to find containers similar to Lechuza. There's some awesome suppliers available on the west coast, but don't ship to the mid-west. | |

| Sunborne, I was also surprised. They only supply to the west coast. Personally, if you're packaging a container to ship - what difference does it make where it's going. The purchaser pays shipping. | |

sunborne isn't a manufacturer, they just re-sell others' containers so the cost of shipping to East or Midwest would be prohibitive for them.
just source what you were looking at from them direct and they will ship to you. if you need help determining a direct source post a photo of what you are looking at and we can help :-) |
