Instead of grocery store packaging cluttering your kitchen cabinets, using airtight canisters can help you streamline pantry organization on everything from dry baking ingredients to snacks—without fear of them going stale. There are even designated dog food storage containers you can shop to keep your pup's food fresh! To help satisfy all your dry food organizational needs, we've rounded up the nine best pantry storage containers to buy right now.

There are a couple things to keep an eye out for when it comes to pantry storage containers: durability and tight seals. Look for picks made of BPA-free plastic, glass, or stoneware, as these are not only safe materials to hold food, but they are also sturdy (think: stain-, odor-, and shatter-resistant) for long-lasting use. And since keeping moisture and pests at bay is essential, lids with water-tight seals will ensure the only thing in the containers is the food you put in them.

Because there are many kitchen storage containers on the market to choose from, we only researched picks from trusted brands and searched for rave reviews with the durability and seal criteria in mind. Plus, we looked high and low for designs that’ll suit your specific needs, from jars to store cereal to stylish sets for pasta that are almost too stunning to tuck away. Shop the nine best pantry storage containers of 2024, ahead.

Glass Food Storage Containers Set

"Let's face it: storage containers are often designed more for function than style, which is understandable. However, that didn't stop me from browsing through every retailer trying to find food storage glassware that looked nice and kept my foods fresh," Senior Commerce Editor Marina Liao says. "I landed on these glass vessels with bamboo lids that have silicone rings on the inside to keep air and moisture out. I had a hard time figuring out how much dry goods fit into the jars since the measurements don't go by weight, but I put what I could into the jars (mine are filled with loose tea leaves and pasta) and kept the rest in its original bag. I love how these jars look sitting out on my kitchen countertop! They're sleek and so far, has kept my ingredients fresh for years."
