will totes be damaged by repeated lifting?

Any opinions on this will be welcome.

The totes that come out of this will tell war stories about seeing fallen comrades be dragged around on the field. I think the only totes that will do well at all are the yellow ones.
Either way if a tote or bin is impossible to use a ref will help with that accoridng to the rules.
