How much does it really hold? Would a 50lb bag fit in the 55 quart container?

I also bought the 67 pound one, and 50 pounds doesn't even fit into that, although it's close. The 40 pound bags for that size are perfect because there's plenty of room for the scoop, and it can still be closed tightly. Given that, the 55 quart would be too small for 50 pounds for sure. My last answer was incorrect... I thought I had the 55 quart container, but I don't. I am sorry about my mistake.

I sincerely doubt it. I bought the 67 quart version, and I put in a full 40 pound bag of Kirkland Healthy Weight dog food in it, and about 4 pounds of what was left in a Science Diet bag of dog food (changing my dog's food). With about 44 pounds of dog food in it, there was about 3 1/2 inches of space left at the top. So, I'd say 50 pounds of dog kibble would fit, just about exactly, in the 67 quart bin. The kibble I put in it is a smaller size kibble, too.

I put a 50 pound bag and a half of another 50lb bag in ours. That was regular sand.

Yes. We get 29-30 lbs at a time so we purchased the 47 quart. We pour it directly into the container. Hope this helps!

I've never counted. Maybe the container will hold 60. Or 70? Lots, though. It works wonderfully for my needs. Get it....you will be pleased, I think.

Yes, it would. We store 50lbs of dog food in one just fine. Lid easily unscrews with one hand.

On a couple of different occasions I've ordered 60 lbs that come in five gal containers. Perhaps I was lucky but it was just as good by the time I reached the bottom as it was when I got it. I suppose that was a couple years at least.

Hi Lyn,We recommend no more than 50 pounds. We have another version coming soon that will hold substantially more. Thanks for your inquiry.

I got the large which says for 50 pounds. I put 35 pounds in it and it fills 3/4 full

I would say around 20lbs. When I buy a 25 lb bag I doesn't quite fit. There is a way to convert quarts to pounds that is on a conversion chart which you may find on a math help web-site. Good Luck.

I think this pump would handle a 55 gal. tank That's probably on the upper level limit of its capability. I personally us it for smaller containers-but don't have to turn it up full.

It doesn't all fit in a large size mason jar or whatever it is that I use. But I don't think you'd want anything larger than a quart. What doesn't fit in the jar I use, I just put in its bag in a freezer bag and keep it in the freezer till there's room in the big jar and I haven't noticed any problem with that.

I bought the 50 pound size, and a 35 pound of dog food fills it about half-full.

I dump my in, so I do not know if it would fit or not. It holds about 35lbs loose so I would think a 30lb bag would fit, but I do not know that for a fact.It is a really nice container.

A 15 lb. bag did not quite fill the container. I would say 40 lbs. would require a larger container.

It holds alot but, has no suppot. Its a very thin nylon bag. Personally I dont think it would.

Absolutely. I fit a 50lbs bag of King Arthur Sir Galahad (the wholesale name of the the All Purpose) flour in it without much issue. So I'd feel confidant in saying it will hold 20lbs of rice. You might want to actually purchase a 30lbs container instead if they make one of those since it would take up less space...I know I'm late to the party but in case someone else had a similar question. It will also hold more if you turn the container 1/4 turn to the left (so the spout comes out the top and not the side)
