I buy a few kilos of dog biscuits at a time and at the moment we keep them in the bag in the garage, and decant enough for a week into a plastic kitchen tub. I’m worried about rats attacking what’s in the garage, so I suspect I want some kind of hard plastic tub, but I’m concerned about it being too big and awkward to easily get out the week’s food. Has anyone else got this solved?

    I have a 30lb capacity Vittles Vault, basically an airtight plastic container. Keeps a bag of food at a time. We go through about a bag every three weeks, just recently started using an auto delivery subscription with Petco. I only got started on it because they stopped having the food Ove been using in the store itself, causing me to have to order online. So far it’s pretty nice. The bag arrives within a day for two of schedeled date. I’m not sure how staleness affects the dog food, so I’ve not yet attempted to stockpile any sort of long term quantity. I would feel more comfortable if I could keep a few months supply on hand just in case supply issues eventually delay shipments.

        This is what I have, but I have the 40lb version. It has an angled next for easier access I guess. There’s a 60lb version too. I also do the same as you but with Amazon Subscribe and Save. I get a back every month and I usually have about a 3 day supply left when a new bag shows up.
