Drip tray or stand for 19.75 x 19 x 40" Aluminum Screen Cage?

Hi, my new cage that I ordered from LLLreptile just came in today and I'm really happy with it. It looks awesome with the plants and vines inside.

Only, I noticed that there are no drip trays for a cage this size on LLLreptile. I came to you guys to ask for any alternatives. I need something that the cage can sit on for when it's time to bring him inside for the fall and winter.


Is there anything cheap online? A cart, stand, or something that can roll around would be wonderful but not necessary. It doesn't have to be anything expensive or fancy. I mainly just need something to catch the water so it doesn't end up all over my floor or ruining some wooded furniture. I'm not much of a builder unless its something very simple.
Thanks!

Well not exactly cheap, but I use dura trays, made for rabbit cages.
You can find them in a lot of different sizes.
I get mine from Martin's Cages, Inc.

I put wood pieces under each corner of the cage to lift it off the tray for proper water flow, and drill a hole in one corner of the tray for drainage.

I am useing my plant pots as drainage, I put a hole in the bucket for the plant and put a fitting from lowes, and hooked that to a drain line like a ice makes lines or some sort of tubing and drains in to a bucket under my cages, seems to be working great ,I should start to sell these things ,,good luck. Eric ps I use a dripper system ..
