Question Very long, large box for bin cage

Hi, my hamster has a pets at home cage and its 51cm in length, 34 cm width and 26 cm height. I want a bigger cage to space out the toys and leave him room to run. I was considering getting the zoozone 2 but want to try making a bin cage first. The problem is i can't find one long enough or big enough. Any one know were to search for one?

Ikea make a great bin called the SAMLA. No doubt, other members will recommend it to you as well. Its a great size, fairly cheap and high quality

Your welcome. Keep your eye on it, was £20 a few weeks back. Amazon are sods for putting prices up!

They have them on Ebay for £24.99 including delivery.
