OK, it's a stupid headline...
I'm an organization freak...except where the garage is concerned. Ask my husband. There are times he can hardly make it from his car to the door through the maze of stuff, most of it dog related.
It seems that I've always got 2 or 3 different types of dry dog food in the garage. If it's in an opened bag, it's all over the place (thanks to Sayla the cat.) And an opened bag can mean problems with pests.
That's why I like Vittle Vaults. They are the nicest food containers on the market. They're made of hard, strong plastic, they stack on top of each other, but most importantly they are easy and quick to open. They have this giant spin top that can be opened or closed with just a quick flip of the wrist. They come in sizes for 4-6 pounds of food to 80 pound capacity. 
The stackable models have openings on the side so you don't have to move containers around. From the manufacturer's website:
"We have gone to lengths to ensure that the Vittles Vault is food safe. The Vittles Vault is manufactured from FDA approved high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which is used throughout the “human” food industry. The gaskets are made from FDA grade styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), and are lightly lubricated with an FDA grade silicone."
I like the 4-6 pound model for traveling. And it comes with its own measuring cup. This is a must for Vino the pudgy cocker.

I've considered this... but we are resisting it because it is plastic. Maybe you have another idea for us? We just moved into a small apartment from a very large house. We used to keep our dog food in a big garbage can in our pantry. Now, it is in the same big garbage can on our patio table, out on the deck. Not a great solution. We'd like something inside. Maybe something mounted on the wall? We'd prefer chrome or stainless. Any ideas? We are coming up short here!!
