how long and how tall? the biggest RUB is a 145litre but they're more expensive than a viv.
You can find the sizes of all the RUBs on the Really Useful Website.

it won't be a RUB. RUB is a brand name and have lockable lids, the nearest RUB size to that is an 84ltr and is a lot more than £6. Whether you use a RUB or a plastic tub the same size will depend if you need to lockable lids.

Sorry for the confusion.

Its up to you if you need the lockables.

For my dubias i dont, hence me not paying extra for the name.

I've seen a good variety of smooth plastic tubs is B&Q. They won't be RUBS but if you're not after a particular brand then it might be a good choice. Much cheaper than similar size RUBs I have seen. Sizes seem to range from shoebox size to a small bath . Just go to the B&Q site and look for 'storage' and then 'storage boxes'.
