You could donate to an elementary school Art department. kids use these for animal legs, teachers use them for storage, etc. If they are stackable that's even better. Also you could go to pintrest for ideas. If they are cleanable inside (can't smell the dog food and are recyclable), you could use Chalk Paint and get knobs to glue to the top and the put a decorative label that you can write on (or already has kitchen or storage label ideas written on then ) and use them for kitchen or office storage containers. Hope this helps. Best of luck.
I know exactly what containers you are talking about. they are the little square ones that hold 3.5 ounces of food. They are not resealable. I can not recycle them because they have the number 7 on the bottom. Our recycling plant will only accept plastics with numbers 1 through 4 because that's what the Chinese will accept.
I have both white ones and clear ones and it just seems like such a waste to toss them out. Someone, somewhere must have a use for them.
Hi there,
How about in a craft room or Shed to hold bits. If you make a timber frame or shelf an cut suitable sized holes in it, pop them in and they will be stable and handy for your bits AND BOBS.
Hi do you still have empty dog food containers. I use them.
I have over 100 they are beneful dog food containers and are food grade with snap on lids I would be happy to give them to anyone wanting them.
This is what they look like.
