Basically no plastics are ESD safe unless they're specifically made to be.
Electrical conductivity is not a common property of plastics at all, quite
the contrary; you're not going to find plastic items that just happen to
be conductive at random.

I'm pleased with the stacking antistatic bins I bought from Uline
(uline.ca, they also have a US site) but those aren't very cheap.
