You'd probably struggle to fit everything, including a decent sized wheel in - although it would be fine for a dwarf with a flying saucer. For a Syrian I suggest one of these:

Ikea SAMLA 130l (don't forget to buy lid and clips)
SAMLA Box - transparent, 79x57x42 cm/130 l - IKEA (http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/90102971/)

Asda 110l box
ASDA 110 Litre Plastic Storage Box and Lid - Clear | Plastic Storage | ASDA direct (http://direct.asda.com/ASDA-110-Litre-Plastic-Storage-Box-and-Lid---Clear/001421736,default,pd.html?cm_vc=PPCXSLTP&utm_source=awin&utm_medium=aff&utm_term=85386&utm_content=VigLink+Inc&utm_campaign=ad&cm_mmc=ad-aff-_-awin-_-VigLink+Inc-_-85386)

im no where near a ikea but im off to asda torrmow so i get one if theres one in stock thanks not sure wheather to get the offer or at least 2 if i breack the 1st one
im a newb ;)

Lol. I gather it's easier to cut the plastic if you heat the knife blade up.

It might be worth ringing ahead as not all Asda branches stock then, but you can order online to collect at your local store.

Good luck with it! :)

Hot knife and a hacksack blade is the best way to go :D
