Mrs Future 5.5 in. diam. x 22 in. Time Capsule Container Standard - Perfect Choice for Burial

Our 5-1/2" x 22" Stainless Steel Time capsule named Mrs. Future is slightly smaller than the 6x24 in size, yet it also fits a lot of items. It actually measures 5.5" x 22" outer dimensions. This family size time capsule fits a lot of items in it, up to 50 items including DVDs in their cases. You'll get a time capsule that has passed our 12 point inspection for all points, except for cosmetics (see below). With this Mrs 5x22 Future Time Capsule, you get only the minimum you need for your time capsule project - the sealant kit, 4 info pamphlets, desiccant, and label. This configuration does not include starter stationery kit, but you can order it here: Starter Stationery Kit. It does not include Oxygen Absorbers, but you can order them here (you only would want the minimum 1,000 cc): Oxygen Absorbers. To add the preservation kit see this link: 11652. Ships promptly.

What's Standard Mean?

It means a NEW, but slightly irregular, time capsule. It will have some slight blemish that makes us sell it as irregular (small blemish on cap surface, small scratch on bottom, etc.). It is functionally sound and scrupulously inspected for any defect that would affect its quality over time. Customers always tell us they have to look closely to find any imperfection. The scratches come from mishandling in transit to us, and we inspect everything for 12 points of quality - and that includes this cosmetic point.

Happy with size for wedding stuff

We didn't know about the size of this time capsule at the time we ordered it, but when we opened the package and held it in our hands we could tell it was just right. It fits all of the items we had for the project and then some. We had some thumb drives, DVD of our wedding, CD of photos, and lots of 5x7 color photos along with little favors from the wedding and little scrolls from our guests, too. We put in a newspaper from the day and our champagne glasses too (those were wrapped good in tissue). We used a small amount of sealant because we just wanted it to be tamper proof (the instructions say the wax is optional so we didn't feel we needed it). We are keeping it in our closet until our 10th anniversary. Doing the time capsule project was fun and made us think about the future, so we put some predictions in there too.

Pleased with quality

I can't tell you how pleased I am with the time capsule. It barely looks like there's a scratch on it. I looked at it all over! I honestly can't believe it was considered less quality than the other. I can't wait to give this to my friend. Thank you so much for working with me and getting it here so quickly! I will definitely order from you again if I ever need another time capsule. Thanks so much, Sarah Sent using OWA for iPhone

Brought us together

We got this container thinking it would be kinda fun and it was, but I had to say it was a bit more than that really. We are a company that has all kinds of people working together and sometimes we have big differences to say the least. For our 5th year we thought it'd be a hoot to do this time capsule. Making fun of us a little bit, you know? For this price we couldn't resist and free shipping too. But then it came and we started putting stuff in it and one thing just led to another. Who would have thought our founder had saved his idea for this company sketched out on a napkin? But he did so we put that inside, and a letter from him and our secretary too. Some other folks from shipping had some old labels and some cartoons, very cool. People we thought just could not be bothered with something like this, came around and put coins and money, that kind of thing, and it got more interest than we ever imagined. So definitely we are giving it give stars.

Perfect for our family

We ordered this on Monday and got it in a few days, quick! Plus it was bigger than we thought and it was big enough for our photos and letters. It came with a lot of info that was helpful. We thought the price was fair and yes we do intend to bury it.

More than I expected

Outside of underestimating the true size of this, it's everything I had hoped for. The quality appears to be very good - seams are only apparent on the inside of the tube, but without any burs; the lid screws down tight; and no blemishes. It was shipped quick on top of that. I'm delighted with it!

Q: How long will it take for this to arrive in southwest Nebraska if ordered today?

Asked by: Loretta - 3/10/2017

A: We are in southern California, near Los Angeles. Fed Ex Ground takes 3 working days to get to, say, Nebraska City 68410. To answer the processing time for this item, if you get your order in by 12 noon, we generally ship the same day!
Thank you for your question.

Q: Will this item last 20 years underground?

Asked by: Sue - 9/5/2018

A: Yes, if you follow the instructions for placement carefully. We do recommend you use the sealant - all instructions for applying it should be followed so that you can open it up again later. Also it should be placed up & down, vertically, not laying down horizontally. By doing this you take advantage of the strength of the cylinder in this position. So it's easiest to use a 'post hole' digger or something similar. If any kind of enclosure or vault is used, we recommend making sure it doesn't hold water from the weather - allow it to drain through. Seal off the area above it well (see our blog entries for examples). Some use a boulder, others a cemented area with a plaque. Don't put it in a garden that will get watered all the time! Other hints and instructions are included with the sealant. As with everything, use common sense. It IS stainless steel, and will not rust unless you have it sitting in water all that time. One good thing about burial is that it keeps it at a stable temperature during that time. Do not place it above ground so that it is subject to changes in temperature. Place it about 18" below the surface.

Q: I am interested in ordering the Mrs. Future Family time capsule and would like to have it engraved. We would need this delivered and in our hands for our groundbreaking on 4/23. We are located in Tampa Florida. Would this be possible? Thank you!

Asked by: Tiffany Garcia - 4/8/2019

A: The time capsules are in stock, however we do not do the engraving ourselves. Please allow one week for either simple or laser engraving for the Family Time Capsules or Nonprofit Time Capsules. We are located in Southern California so it takes about 4 working days for ground shipment. Thank you for your question! Due to the urgency of the question, we contacted you directly when you asked it.

Q: Can this time capsule be buried ? I’m looking for one that can be buried for a jr. high class.

Asked by: Emilie Padilla - 4/19/2022

A: Yes, of course. We recommend using a post hole digger because it should be positioned up and down (vertically) and not on its side. Each unit comes with sealant and instructions on burial if you want to do that. The area above where time capsules are placed should be sealed off nicely such as with a plaque installation (see https://www.futurepkg.com/wamu-hollywood-time-capsule) or even with a boulder (see https://www.futurepkg.com/eli-lilly-time-capsule). Never wrap any time capsule in plastic, always use common sense.
