Normally, I line the clean bucket with a mylar food storage bag, and then put in about 25 pounds of grains, sugar or beans. I’m not that particular about shape, mine stack just fine. When buying buckets from prepper suppliers they pay more for square buckets than round buckets. Some people are anal/adamant/OCD that buckets must be square because they stack better and take up less room. I only take the ones that had white or glazed frosting. In my experience the ones that had chocolate frosting are difficult to clean and get rid of the frosting smell. I prefer to get the ones with the metal handle (bail) as there is less worry a handle will break and the contents be spilled onto the floor. They are not five gallon, they are 3.5 gallon, and they are food grade buckets. I get my buckets from the bakery at the local Kroger affiliated store. We really recommend trying to get your bucket for free, but if the above stores don’t get you anywhere, you can simply order buckets over at Amazon for a reasonable price too. Hopefully some of you who managed to get their five gallon buckets for free can share your experiences in the comments below, so that we can add to it.
