Understanding the Capacity of the Empty Bucket in Real Salt Products
When considering storage options for your salt supply, knowing the capacity and features of the containers is essential. Redmond Real Salt offers a practical solution for those who want to store salt conveniently and safely with their Fine Bulk Bag-Bucket Bundle.
Real Salt® Fine Bulk Bag-Bucket Bundle (10 lb. Bag + Empty 1 Gallon Bucket)
This bundle includes a 10 lb. bag of Real Salt Fine and an empty plastic bucket designed specifically for storage. The bucket has a
1-gallon capacity, making it ideal for holding the entire 10 lb. bag of salt comfortably.
Key benefits of this bucket include:
- Food-grade, BPA-free plastic ensures safe storage for your salt without contamination.
- A secure lid to keep salt fresh and protected from moisture or contaminants.
- The bucket is durable and reusable, perfect for long-term salt storage or other kitchen uses.
- Comes with three Real Salt stickers to personalize and label your bucket.
This bucket is designed to hold 10 lbs. of salt, which matches the included 10 lb. bag perfectly. However, the company no longer ships the bucket pre-filled due to shipping challenges, so customers receive the salt and bucket separately for convenient storage at home.
This storage solution is perfect for those who want to keep their salt fresh and accessible while avoiding the issues that came with previously sold pre-filled 10 lb. buckets.
Why the Change from Pre-Filled Buckets?
Redmond Life explains that the original 10 lb. buckets were discontinued because:
- They were prone to damage during shipping.
- Hand-filling caused delays in order fulfillment.
- Supply chain difficulties made sourcing the buckets challenging.
- Shipping costs were high due to the bucket’s size and weight.
The current approach of selling the salt bag and empty bucket together offers a practical alternative that maintains convenience and quality.
