beckygardener said:They do sell "shallow" plastic tubs, too. But you would need to punch some holes in the bottom with a screwdriver or knife for drainage if they are going to be outside in the weather.


Those would work too, but I was thinking of these, which are apparently called "rope tubs" not "tote tubs":

For longer term these have the advantage of more root space if necessary and should require less watering. The plants could stay in them even longer term and just be picked up and put on the moving truck (if that's how they're going and assuming not recently watered to make them too heavy) with no need to immediately plant them at the other end either.
