Aztec Gold Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I've always wondered where you get those giant plastic containers with lids that some people store their food in. Does anyone know? What do you keep all your dry food etc. in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you keep all your dry food etc. in? I got a special type one from Petstock made just for kibble. It is insect proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minxy Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 A lot of people use those mini garbage bins (like your green and yellow ones) that come in lots of different colours. You get them from cheap and junky stores like Crazy Clarks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvawilow Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 A lot of people use those mini garbage bins (like your green and yellow ones) that come in lots of different colours. You get them from cheap and junky stores like Crazy Clarks etc. We use a bright pink one - got it from Bunnings. We also use the special storage container that you get from Petstock (bloody rip off at $50 IMO). Both do the same job well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirty Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I use plastic bins from Bunnings - the ones with the clip-on lids are best. Otherwise most stock feed/produce stores sell feed bins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 The local pet food place has sales of plastic tubs with screw on lids every now and then - I have two 10kg ones because it's easier to carry and stash them out of the way... I need a couple more for the puppy dry (I buy 20kg bags of kibble) T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WreckitWhippet Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I have bins provided by Science Diet and the like. It's handy to work in the pet industry and get whatever you want from the reps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karelea Aussies Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Another here that uses the old style round plastic bins. They fit a 20 kg bag of food and the lids clips on so the dogs can't get into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ams Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I've got the blue plastic bins from stock feed places. They have a ring that locks the lid on. Stops the dogs getting in but the rats will still chew through the plastic (and it isn't thin plastic either) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
