Thwarted!
The FB Marketplace seller spooked me with too many big red flags.

Not worth the risk, this time.

I use a lot of these food safe drums, they stack, more rodent proof than a lot of the boxes and come in all sorts of sizes, no connection to seller https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335941887772 ... R_LT48TyZg

What do yours weigh when full?
How High do you dare to stack them?
Don't you find them hard to pack with tins/tetrapaks etc?
Or do you only but pulses etc in them?
