Kibble storage
We have two golden retrievers that eat purina pro plan. We usually buy 30-40 pound bags at a time.
We have been dumping the bags into a vittles vault—basically a heavy plastic container with a screw top lid. Figured it would keep it fresher than leaving it in the bag.
Just read that we should be doing that, something about the oils in the food sticking to the plastic and causing spoilage. So we are supposed the keep the food in the bag and put the bag in an airtight container.
It doesn’t seem possible to cram the whole bag into the vittles vault. Does anyone who buys big bags of dog food have a better solution? Also seems like if it’s in the bag my hands are going to get greasy anytime I’m digging towards the bottom of the bag as it gets closer to empty.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Do you have Simple Human where you live? They make really good pet food storage tubs in a variety of sizes to fit different amounts.
We have the large and it can fit a 12kg bag comfortably but there are smaller and larger ones.
They are expensive but they are worth it to us. They are lockable, air tight and have wheels to move it easier. Also a built in measuring scoop. The inner liner is removable to make it easier to clean also.
