Eco-Friendly Erosion Control and Soil Stabilization:

Dirt Locker® terrace gardening systems are made in the USA from 100% recycled plastic, recycling the equivalent of 13 plastic milk jugs per unit. Sloped yards are highly susceptible to erosion, leading to costly repairs and landscape damage. Dirt Locker planters effectively stabilize the soil, preventing washouts and landslides, especially during heavy rains.
