Anyone looking for pellet storage. These bird seed/pet food containers make a good option.
Budeez is the brand. Lots of stores sell them labeled for different things and different color schemes but the prices vary wildly. They for a 20lb bag perfectly.

You likely can fit 30 if you take em out of the bag, cut out the label and slap it on with some tape

5gal bucket with lid & litter scoop for the win.

Budeez also makes pellet storage, same box, different marketing

Be careful not to leave them outside – they aren’t rainproof (or at least similar ones that I bought aren’t).

What’s wrong with the bag they come in?

5gal bucket with snap gasketed lid from fire house subs is $3 and proceeds go to your local heroes/first responders charity.

Grabbed a 6 pack of Homer buckets and paired with Gamma seals. Probably paid ‘too much’ but, they’re stack-able and safe from the weather and rat piss. Not mad about it.

I bought these exact containers labeled as pellet storage.

Love my Home Depot bucket and kitty liter scoop.

I vacuum seal the bags after splitting the big 20lb/9kg bag into 3 smaller bags and buy bulk when they go on sale.

I got one at Sam’s where it was being displayed with the pellets I use.

I have the exact same containers. Only they were marketed as an ice melt salt container

May I also suggest buckets from harbor freight.

I bought one a hated it. It’s sitting outside in my garbage right now. Mine was not air tight as I expected and rain water filled it up when I left it outside. Back to a bucket with a lid for me

That same bin is logoed and marketed by a bunch of companies and stores.
The ones we sell will hold 40 pounds of pellets. We sell them for $14.99.
I use 5 gallon buckets with gamma lids.

I have a 5 gal bucket and lid with mesh insert with smalls sitting one inch off the bottom of the bucket. The dust settles below the pellets.

They look like ink cartridges.

They also market the exact same ones as pellet storage. Work well. Don’t leave in sun, they get brittle.

I use the same ones but I still keep pellets in the bag inside of that container

hej_allihopa
I have one of those. They are not waterproof I can tell you from experience.
