5-Gallon Buckets That Won’t Stick
Here is a way to stack buckets so they never stick together.
Here is an easy way to stack 5-gal. buckets so they never get stuck together. Simply place a 2×4 block sideways in the bucket—3-1/2-in. dimension up—so the bucket above will sit on the block. This will hold the bucket up about 3/4 in. higher than it would sit without the block and will prevent it from sticking to the bucket below. Each block-layered bucket will lift right out, even the ones on the bottom of a huge stack that have been there forever.
