PIG Utility Containment Tray 23.93 Gal Sump - Durable Spill Tray

In this review of the PIG utility containment tray the bottom line is simple: this is a heavy-duty, no-nonsense spill tray for anyone who needs reliable temporary containment of leaking containers or oily parts. The trays thick-wall polyethylene construction and ribbed bottom are the single biggest reasons to buy, because they keep the tray from bending or warping while elevating parts away from pooled liquids. It suits garage, shop, and light industrial use where durability and ease of cleaning matter.

Key Features

• Thick-wall construction: The chemical-resistant polyethylene body resists bending and warping so the tray stays flat under heavy loads and repeated use.
• Ribbed bottom: Ribs on the bottom add strength and elevate parts above trapped liquids to prevent items from sitting in spills.
• Generous sump capacity: A 23.93 gallon sump provides ample containment for multiple small containers or fluid-change runoff.
• Interior footprint: The 24 in by 48 in interior bottom gives a broad flat area that fits large components and multiple small drums.
• Stackable design: Trays stack for compact storage when not in use, useful for shops that need occasional containment without permanent racks.

Who It's For

The tray is aimed at mechanics, DIYers, hydroponics hobbyists, and small shops that need a portable, durable way to catch leaks, drips, and fluid changes. It works well under transmissions, radiators, or as a basin for washing parts and large sheets that shed liquid.

Those who need permanent containment for drums or regulatory secondary containment for large chemical storage should look for certified spill pallets or larger capacity units designed to meet specific regulatory requirements. This tray is best as temporary storage and catchment rather than fixed secondary containment for industrial-scale operations.
