Free Food Grade buckets from Food Lion

What a great idea! I love the decorations that you added to them.

I am always looking for large storage containers for the same items and never thought of using buckets. Thank you for the idea. I will have to keep my eyes open.
 
I buy raw sugar. It comes in 50# bags. I use 5 gallon buckets to store it in. We did lables like yours. I buy bulk for many things so we have sugar, flour, etc in buckets. They stack nicely but you need a big pantry!
 
Great idea ,and FREE
we used our empty Kitty litter square buckets as nest boxes, they last forever..

Dh hung them on screws on the coop
wall, We just un hook them when cleaning needs to be done and the bottom
half of the front attached
lid keeps the eggs from rolling out.
the top half is cut off.
 
It may already by posted on here somewhere, but when storing bulk flour, you can add a bay leaf to the container to keep bugs out. I sometimes think they come from the store warehouse though. I keep my grits, cornmeal and flour in the freezer, but I have a friend who swears by the bay leaves.
