How do you store your pellets?

This is what I use to store my pellets. Leave them in the opened bag so I remember what kind I have.

The pelletcan is a lot more now! I wanted one but ain’t paying $399
 
I store my pellets in Kingsford air tight charcoal/briquette bins, one for each flavor. Purchased in Amazon but often cheaper elsewhere.

Each holds about 2 bags or 40# of pellets and it is very easy to scoop out the pellets as needed. In addition, these containers fit neatly under the hopper on a small step stool for emptying the hopper when changing flavors.

I do the same👌🏻
 
I have 3 mini trash cans with locking lids. I used to use these to store my wood chunks for the WSM. I drilled out a couple 1/4 hole around the top to allow air flow. I keep my bags in a patio storage bench thingy. It's handy, it also holds my 2 gal shop vac for easy clean up. When I fill a mini can with pellets, I will put the bag label in there so I remember what is what. I use a pint sized cup to scoop out the pellets when loading the hopper to help cut down on dust getting in the system.

Bulk storage is in my garage, but I keep a couple smaller plastic storage containers out back under my covered area For easy access. About four bags of various flavors at the ready.

Wish i would’ve seen those before i bought the Kingsford ones on amazon . I bought 4 and were 14.99 each . That must be the company that makes them because each one was in a buddies box . Probably cheaper without the name on it . Good find!
 
If you want to get fancy get a few 5 gallon buckets and get a "bucket head" vac from home depot. It fits on 5 gallon buckets so you just put it on the empty bucket you want to fill and vac the pellets into it. But it's a bit slow that way so I only use the vac for last part.
 
How do you guys or gals store your pellets? I've seen some special containers on Amazon. Do you need to keep the pellets in a sealed container? Are they that sensitive to moisture? Lots of questions here!!

I purchased 2 of these. I like them because the spout is a perfect Size to pour without spilling.
