5 Gallon Pail NO LID

A food-grade 5-gallon pail for storing and moving honey, syrup, or feed. It's sold without a lid so you can pair it with whichever closure fits your workflow — a sealing tear-tab lid for storage, an EZ pour-spout lid for dispensing, or a honey gate for bottling.

Features

• Food-grade 5-gallon plastic pail
• Sturdy carry handle
• Stackable and reusable
• Accepts standard 5-gallon lids and a drop-in honey gate
• Lid sold separately

How it works in real life

This is the workhorse container of a honey house — fill it from the extractor or strainer, then add the closure you need. Snap on a tear-tab lid for sealed storage, fit an EZ pour-spout lid for a working bucket you dip into often, or drill the side and install a honey gate to bottle straight from the pail. Food-grade plastic keeps honey clean and the handle makes a full pail easier to move.

Before you order

• The lid is not included — choose a lid or gate separately.
• Standard 5-gallon size, so it accepts common 5-gallon lids and gates.
