The total surface area of the cuboid can be calculated by finding the area of all six faces and then adding them together.

Each face has the dimensions 5 cm x 5 cm, 5 cm x 5 cm, and 5 cm x 5 cm for a total of 6 faces.

Therefore, surface area = 2(5 cm x 5 cm) + 2(5 cm x 5 cm) + 2(5 cm x 5 cm) = 50 cm2 + 50 cm2 + 50 cm2 = 150 cm2

Therefore, the total surface area of the storage bin is 150 cm2.
