Heritage & History
Rubbermaid was founded in 1920 in Wooster, Ohio — originally as the Wooster Rubber Company, producing toy rubber balloons before pivoting to housewares in the 1930s. The Rubbermaid brand was officially adopted in 1933 and the company began producing the dustpans, dish drainers, and storage products that would define it for the next century.
Through decades of growth and eventual acquisition by Newell Brands, Rubbermaid maintained American manufacturing capacity for its core storage product lines. The Roughneck storage tote series and the Cleverstore clear container series carry explicit 'Made in USA' labeling on retail listings and packaging — a meaningful commitment to domestic production for a brand now headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia as part of a multinational corporation.
Made in the USA
Rubbermaid's Roughneck tote and Cleverstore bin product lines are manufactured in the United States. The Roughneck series — available in 3 to 25-gallon sizes in rugged, impact-resistant polypropylene — is specifically built for heavy-duty storage in garages, basements, and job sites. The Cleverstore series uses clear BPA-free plastic with latching lids for visibility and stackability.
Both product lines carry the Made in USA designation clearly on product listings and packaging, making them one of the few mainstream storage brands that can make that claim. The domestic manufacturing means consistent quality control and materials sourcing to American standards. For consumers looking for American-made storage solutions from a brand with over 100 years of US manufacturing history, Rubbermaid's Roughneck and Cleverstore lines deliver that combination.
