They do stack neatly. Too neatly, as one discovers when time comes to
separate them! They seem welded together.

I started drilling holes in the bottoms, and use them as receptacles
to collect weeds for the compost, or stones and rubbish. Added
advantage is that if you leave them in the rain you do not find a
watery cocktail later.

We have them as weed buckets and cement mixing buckets etc, but my posting
was more relevant to keeping such as Tomorite out of the sun so one can read
the labels.
