Where to buy quart size styrofoam containers?

[murphys law]

Where can I find some quart size styrofoam containers and lids fairly cheap? Needing some for BBQ to give to friends.

Google styrofoam cold ship container or some such.

 

[murphys law]

Don’t need shipment containers, I’m talking about the 32oz Cups with lids like the ones you buy bbq from at restaurants. Only ones i’ve found is in bulk and fairly expensive.

You said, "... Containers"
You are looking for containers or bowls.
You are going to pay more cause you're not buying in bulk or a regular customer.

Example,

If you want smaller quantities try going to a local wholesale/retail restaurant supply outlet.
Example, Monarch Direct.

Or go search Amazon, not foam but paper, chinese take-out containers, cheaper than most foam.

Buy a 'hinged take-out container', save money over buying your cups and lids since most are sold separately.

GFS has walk in stores all over the country. That's where I would head. It's where I get all of my styro containers from

 

[jokensmoken]

I agree with fivetricks... Gordon Food Service
(GFS) is where I get mine...
On another note...
If it's a one time thing and you dont need a ton, you might approach a local small resturant and ask if you could buy a dozen...

Between GFS and Sams Club they have every takeout container imaginable.
