I have saved kitchen scraps for our compost off and on for many years. I say "off and on" because I'd get discouraged with fruit flies, etc., and difficulty taking off or putting back on a tight bucket lid and I'd just give up. I started using this dog food container this last year and now no problems with fruit flies or odor or anything because it has such a tight seal but opens with one hand and easy to carry out to the compost site.

They have a variety of sizes, I believe, at Petsmart (where we got ours several years ago for dog food) and DH saw them at our local ag store also.
