“We love this container because it can easily be modified to suite the customers’ needs. For example at the United Way of Central Alabama Centennial Celebration, where they used it as a beverage stand, they wanted the container to be painted United Way blue with the back wall painted with chalkboard paint so the participants could inscribe messages.
