How long can they stay in a small space

Cause of temperature drops I had to put my sulcata in a plastic storage bin inside.
Temperature is 77 f in my room
The plastic bin is big enough that he can turn around in it hes 4 years old
How long can he stay in it I guess better days come again in a week
Or should I buy a plastic pool in my local store so he has more room?

I would suggest something much bigger than that. At least 8'x4'. You'll need to up that temperature a bit as well. Needs a minimum of 80 degrees. How large is your tort? Got any pics? Would love to see him!

A few hours or overnight is fine once in a while, but you tortoise needs a more permanent solution. It needs a stable environment and correct temperatures day and night all the time. 80 is fine as a minimum ambient temp day and night, but the tortoise still needs a basking area to heat up in. This is tough to do as they get larger than 8-10" without burning the top of their carapace. A plastic pool is not large enough either.

Welcome to the joys of housing a giant tropical reptile that needs lots of room in a frozen climate. I don't know how anyone does it.
