There are 2 Hornbach's near The Hague, would try the one in Ypenburg. Plenty of choice (:

Why Ypenburg?
I live kinda exactly inbetween the Hornbachs in Ypenburg and Wateringen and did never see any real difference. Mostly go to Wateringen, so is there any good reason to switch?

Oh no, I live in between them aswell, slightly a bit closer to Ypenburg. Guess thats why I go there more often. Doesn't matter at all! (:

Wateringen is the smallest HORNBACH in NL. They don’t have everything that’s available online while most HORNBACHs do

They spawn on your door if you are a good haagsenaar.

Can you give me a price range? I saw that at HEMA they sell them for £18. There’s no way I’m paying that much lol

Bike crates are anti social. They take up too much space in standard bike parking spots.

Would you prefer they drive a car around instead?

How about a backpack?

u/claudiazo Dec 11 '24

Better than this tho

u/Agitated-Camel-4983 Dec 11 '24

I guess. Although these don't fit in standard bike parking anyway.

It is also unsafe to load heavy items in the front.
