• Many in Central Oregon are looking for a
  Rubbermaid outdoor storage shed and want a true
  comparable difference between them and
  buying/renting a wooden shed. In September of
  2017, we wrote a great article explaining
  everything there is to know about them. But lets
  get into greater detail about the difference
  between plastic, metal and wood. The results may
  surprise you.

• Sanitation
• Contrary to popular belief, wooden cutting boards
  are safer than plastic cutting boards. What does
  that have to do with sheds? Everything. Plastic
  is more prone to bacteria, spores and mold.
  According to research done by Dean O. Cliver,
  PhD, Professor Emeritus of Food Safety at the
  University of California, "With the plastic,
  after manual washing as I would do under my
  kitchen faucet, we could still recover bacteria
  from grooves" After replicating Cliver's
  research, both the USDA and the FDA have changed
  their food prep recommendations to wood. Wooden
  cutting boards pulled the bacteria down beneath
  the surface of the cutting board, where they
  didnt multiply and eventually died off.

• Aesthetics
• Plastic sheds will not keep its color. Over time
  the dyes are destroyed by light removing any
  color. simultaneously the plastic is degraded and
  becomes rough on the surface and acquires an
  inhomogeneous refractive index within the
  structure due to the destruction of bonds and
  oxidation and the end of chains. These two
  structural changes cause scattering, and since
  blue is scattered more than the other colors due
  to the relation of scattering with wavelength to
  the fourth power, the material appears blue when
  looking at the reflected light. If you look at
  transmitted light going through the plastic it
  should appear yellow.

• Heat
•  
• Rubbermaid outdoor storage shed heat up faster
  and stays hotter than Outbuilders wooden sheds.
  Wood is a natural insulator. Even though wooden
  sheds without insulation remain hotter than the
  outside environment, wood is still better because
  it continues to hold into moisture which cools
  the shed down. Wood, although appears to look
  dry, can hold moisture for decades which in turn
  can keep the shed smelling fresh and cool during
  the summer. Contact us today for more information
