Yup. Use those as well as the square buckets.

These work better. You can stack them.

Virtually free if you have a cat and if your other half happens to like that particular cat litter.

These 6 quart boxes fit better on the shelves in my shop and they seem to be pretty durable. Easier to get into and out of.

FWIW we had a pair of cats for years. They were great companions for us and for each other. We miss having furry friends around but they're a tripping hazard we do not need at our age. No dogs either, because I am too old to be walking the dog in a blizzard.

I used to use these, and still have a bunch, but the coffee tubs have handles for one-handed carry, as do the kitty-litter buckets and such:

For range trips nothing seems to beat coffee tubs, especially for the range bag...

Cool idea, @the86d! Cat litter is also good for cleaning up fluid spills if you work on cars. So, if you do that, then just save the bottles.

I generally use 5-gallon paint or spackle buckets. They're stackable and hold a good quantity of brass, and they were handy since I was doing a home improvement job anyway.

I don't see any beer boxes, just a few Corona boxes...

If you are going to drink something Mexican, get Indio, or something with flavor, even Sol has a better than Corona.

This reminds me, when I was in Mexicali last year, I brought a Mexican-American from the Chicago area to the local microbrew... he had only really drunken like Miller and Corona, ever, his whole life. I hope I impressed him with some Mexican craft Stouts, Sours, and Porters, and he will broaden his horizons...

Indio became my favorite for at least a year, however it stopped being stocked at my local Cardinas for some reason, maybe Corona (COVID-19)?
TRIGGERED!!!
I settled on 805, again.
