How are ingredients for pet food kept in storage? Almost all pet food ingredients are dry products that can be kept in a food-safe setting at room temperature. Bulk storage options for ingredients include Gaylord boxes, big totes, and super-sacks. Pallets are usually used to store them in 25–50-pound bags. Pet food ingredients are frequently safe to stack since they are compact and thick. Another excellent option for storing food ingredients is racking storage.
