> I've been using 1/2 bushel wooden harvest baskets that I picked up for a
good price at montepkg.com. When they get dirty, I just rinse them out
with a hose and let them dry in the sun. I pack each one with a 1/2 gal
plastic milk jug of frozen water. My delivery vehicle is a pickup with
a canopy. The space is terrific but in the peak of summer it gets real
hot so even with the ice, I also cover the baskets with clean wet
towels. This keeps dust off and the evaporative cooling keeps
everything fresh. I have 2 for each subscriber and pick up the empty on
delivery...
