Looking for dosing container ideas

I'm looking for single containers that can be rinsed out, and not interested in big and bulky things that take up space
I would prefer square-sided stuff so I can 'bookend' them for my Big 3

I kinda like this style, although it's a bit difficult to rinse out
If it's all I can find, so be it
These are 5l jugs, so perfect

I saw a post on RC where someone had bought similar jugs from Walmart but I haven't seen them

Thanks for any help

Greg have you seen the kirkland square milk containers from costco in states?
They are square, all the way up to the approx 1.5 in screw cap. One US gal.
My neighbour puts them out from time to time.

Check out Industrial Plastics.

You can get the ones that are used for water that sit in your fridge I think some of them have spouts for pouring as we'll.

I buy milk by the gallon, but don't trust the jugs to hold up to the heat from Ca and Mg

Do you mean the collapsible camping ones that are totally square ? I don't want those

I'm looking for tall, long, slender ones that can be 'bookended', as in stacked left to right on a shelf

The ones I linked are 9-1/4" x 2-5/8" x 14-5/8"
A very nice rectangle that would fit well on a shelf
I don't specifically need those measurements, bit it gives you an idea of what I'm looking for;
Tall, slender, longish

Think of it as a card slot :wink:
Slip in a jug, slip out a jug ...

No not those these one just sit in your fridge exactly like the containers that BRS sells that are labeled something like "take up little space dosing containers".
Hope this helps

So can you give me some info on where to buy them ? Or a link or something ... I'm looking for local suppliers
Thanks Hayden

Industrial Plastics doesn't appear to produce what I'm looking for

Something like this. They are all over amazon or eBay but if you want to buy them locally I would think that Walmart would have them.

These are what I use. Hopefully the pic comes through.
