Choosing and using cereal containers

Quick answers about airtight cereal containers: capacity, keeping cereal fresh and pest-free, other uses and easy care.

How much cereal does each container hold?

Our 4 Piece Airtight Cereal Containers set includes two 6.3 litre and two 4 litre containers. Each one is big enough to hold a full box of cereal, so you can empty a new box straight in, and the tall shape stands neatly on a pantry shelf or kitchen counter.

Do airtight cereal containers really keep cereal fresh?

Yes. Once a cereal box is opened, air and humidity quickly make cereal soft and stale, and folded inner bags let in ants, moths and weevils. A locking flip-top lid seals out air, moisture and pests, so cornflakes, muesli and granola stay crunchy far longer than in the original box.

What else can I store in cereal containers?

They're great for almost any dry food that you pour: oats, muesli, granola, rice, flour, sugar, pasta, nuts, dried fruit and snacks. The pour spout makes it easy to measure out rice or sugar without a scoop.

How do I clean and look after my cereal containers?
  • The containers are dishwasher safe, or wash them in warm soapy water.
  • Let them dry completely before refilling, as any moisture makes cereal go soft.
  • Finish the old cereal before adding a new box, rather than topping up, so nothing sits at the bottom for months.
  • Cut the best-before date off the box and stick it to the container so you always know how fresh it is.
