How / Where do you keep your bag of feed?

I use 55 gallon plastic drums with a rim that locks the lid down. I have used this for 5 years and haven't had rodents get in any of them yet, and have plenty of rodents. It will hold 4 fifty pound bags. You can find them at flea markets and craigs list for 10.00 to 15.00 a piece.
 
I have the plastic trash cans as well. I bought the bigger ones that hold about 150# of feed. When they get low I get all the old feed out into buckets and put in the new then dump the older stuff on top. I store my access bags of feed in my garage on Pallets to keep them off the floor. When I buy more feed I always rotate stock in the garage too.....

x2 Same here
 
We use the barrels with the locking lids too. We keep 6 barrels with feed in them, but we use the plastic totes for our dog food and our pig (Jenny) feed and the only rodents that get in them are my ducks

But we have a very large feeder in the front for our free range birds, it holds about 1 1/2 tons of feed and there is never any creatures in there either but Bear our GP.
