I am looking for something to store my grains in for food storage and want to avoid plastic.** A: It is not. Our plastic pails are bpa free and food grade - 2V-K9N7-B0B7 **Q: Is it safe for grilling, non-galvanized?** A: It appears to be non-galvanized, as the inside of the bucket is very "raw". I noticed some rust inside after some use, and sprayed a clear lacquer inside to keep it from oxidizing any further. However, keep in mind that the paint on the outside of it is more than likely not considered safe for grilling. Hopefully this info helps. **Q: Can a plastic lid be used on this pail? for example http://www.amazon.com/leaktite-plastic-pail-rubber-gallon/dp/b000lnw8ry/ref=sr_1_26?s=industrial&i** A: No **Q: I'm attempting to utilize this to hold shower water while camping and intend on putting a propane flame under it to keep it warm. Would this be fine** A: Use a stainless steel cooking stock pot instead. No rust. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vestil PAIL-STL-RI Steel Open Head Pail with Handle, 5 gallon Capacity, Black, Pack of 1 - Vestil LID-STL-LL Steel Lever Lock Pail Lid, for 5 gallon, Black - Vestil LID-STL-LL-UN Steel UN Rated with Lever Lock Pail Lid, for 5 gallon, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/6027594-vestil-pail-stl-ri-steel-open-head-pail-5-gallon](https://www.desertcart.us/products/6027594-vestil-pail-stl-ri-steel-open-head-pail-5-gallon) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
