At the end of lunch, all 300+ lunchbags are tossed into a bin. I'm tired of DC's lunch bag getting spilled on or squished and requiring a wash so am looking for something I can just wipe down. Can anyone recommend a hard-sided lunch box? Preferably one that can fit two lunchbots and a water bottle inside in an outside pocket. Not looking for the old-school hard-sided lunch box with wonder woman, etc on the front with just has a latch.

Under Armour. I assume they make girl colors.

I don't understand what you are looking for - hard sided with a pocket? Anything with a pocket is going to have a fabric coating, even if it is hard-shelled underneath.

We use a planet box, which is hard. The bag is separate and washable with a pocket, but it still gets gross from the communal bin.

I don't have a recommendation for a hard-sided lunchbox but I've been using lunchbags from LL Bean and if they get gross I toss them in the washing machine and they look great afterwards. It has been a good hack for us because I also don't like trying to wipe out all the creases of soft lunchboxes. This has eliminated this problem!

LE has worked well for us. We have a similar lunch system of everyone's lunchbox tossed into a bin at school this year.

My DGDs have had good luck with both of these LE styles:

"Soft sided" https://www.landsend.com/products/school-uniform-classmate-printed-soft-sided-lunch-box/id_300635?sku_0=::3Z3

EZ wipe https://www.landsend.com/products/school-uniform-printed-classmate-ez-wipe-lunch-box/id_300633?sku_0=::4AE

ETA: even the soft-sided isn't squishy-soft. The EZ wipe has a bit more structure.
