I see mixed reviews about the product condition when received. Is there a way the containers can be taped down to prevent spilling?

You can put tape on the sides to hold them together, but it's a poor quality product. Don't waste your money.

My tins have always been 'sealed' with a big swath of heavy duty clear packing tape; the detergent is packed inside a plastic baggie and tied with a twisty; the scoop is 'buried' in the detergent. I would find it very odd to receive a tin that wasn't taped closed.

I've been using them for a good while which I think is long term and so far I haven't had any problems with them. But no they aren't air tight. To make them so I would cover them with plastic wrap before putting on the cover or just find an alternative container.

They don't have individual covers. I guess it's not really meant for travel, because it's true if you shook it around they could get mixed. (I have used aluminum foil in a pinch.) I haven't had a problem with spills or freshness in regular, everyday use though.

There is no disclosure on the container one way or the other. Might want to contact Atecco directly...

Yes, they lock in place and have had no problems with leaking. It really is a nice set of containers.

They are great containers but for storage it is best to make sure the container are thoroughly dry and store them with lids on.

I have put the container in the dishwasher on the bottom and the lid either I hand wash or put on the top rack. I use them often and they still look brand new.

I placed the grease in a glass tupperware and stored it in the refrigerator. I did not use the container it came in because the containers came with it partly leaked. I just placed my second order and am hoping they fixed the packaging issue.

They may be sealed when when packaged, but mine were all open and two were wet on the inside when I received them. If I had to guess, I would say the top cardboard rings cut through the plastic during shipping. Very poor/cheap packaging.

They are loose, they come in a retail package (thin cardboard) with bubble wrap and a plastic bag with a bit of oil on them. Mine were not damaged, the packaging was fine in that respect, but it wasn't anything to keep for storing them.

I don't. I have a container that is pretty airtight. I have never had any problems.

They have a safety seal. I purchased this product, and 2 of 4 containers in the package were open. There is no way to receive a refund either. Buy at your own risk

It does not come with the container which was a bit of a let down. They are still reusable, but I would keep your fingers down to prevent any leakage.

There is a soft rubber seal around the lid which if tightened ought to prevent moisture getting in/out. I have not tested this however, it is just m impression from inspecting the container.

It is a sealed container. There should be no issue. It works for us. It is a great container. The only recommendation I have is to put a food magnet so nobody tries to use it as a trash can.

I would contact the company before handling the contents of the container or you can search to find smaller containers sold by the company.
