IRIS USA 5-Gallon Heavy-Duty Lockable Storage Totes, 6-Pack Black — Stackable, BPA-Free

IRIS USA 5-gallon heavy-duty lockable storage totes are durable, stackable containers with secure buckle latches and grooved lids for safe transport and organized storage.

These 6 black totes are made from sturdy, BPA-free polypropylene in the USA and sized to fit tools, seasonal gear, documents, and household supplies while conserving shelf and floor space. Each tote features a tapered body for nesting when empty, a tight buckle-up latching system to keep lids firmly in place, and grooved tops that allow secure stacking or tie-downs during transport. With inside dimensions suited for smaller items and an overall footprint that stacks neatly, they’re designed to simplify organization in garages, basements, closets, and vehicles.

How do these totes protect items from dust and moisture?

The lids snap down with strong buckle latches that pull the lid tight against the container rim to reduce exposure to dust and splashes. While not airtight, the design minimizes airborne dust and incidental moisture intrusion for most household and storage needs.

• Buckle-up latches provide a secure, tensioned seal.
• Grooved lid helps keep the top seated correctly when stacked.
• Durable polypropylene resists cracking and warping over time.

Will these totes stack and fit on shelving or in a vehicle?

Yes — the grooved lids and tapered body allow safe, space-saving stacking and efficient shelf placement. The compact 18.13" x 11.63" footprint fits typical utility shelving and most car trunks, and the nested design shrinks storage when not in use.

• Grooved lid aligns containers for stable vertical stacking.
• Tapered sides enable nesting to save space when empty.
• Exterior dimensions work with standard shelving and van trunks.

What kind of items are best stored in these 5-gallon totes?

These totes are ideal for smaller household and outdoor gear where organization and protection matter. Use them for tools, hardware, camping supplies, seasonal decorations, pet supplies, or archived documents that need a clean, dry place.

• Tools, fasteners, and workshop accessories.
• Camping gear, ropes, and small electronics in cases.
• Clothing accessories, linens, and holiday decorations.

Are these totes safe for food, textiles, or archival items?

Made from BPA-free, acid-free plastic, these totes are formulated to avoid common harmful chemicals. They provide a safer storage option for non-perishable food items in sealed packaging, clothing, textiles, and household documents, but avoid storing loose food without secondary containers.

• BPA- and phthalate-free polypropylene construction.
• Acid-free material helps reduce long-term degradation risks for textiles.
• Recommend using sealed bags for loose food or fragile paper items.
