Here are some fun container ideas for storing pellets near your stove.

Most people store pellets in bags in an outbuilding or garage, or in a bulk hopper. Many of you also store a small pellet supply inside the house and near your stove. Containers can make a statement about your design preferences and style. There are many options – the key is choosing one that has either a large opening for scooping pellets, or handles for pouring them out. You can get creative with containers!
