Can they hold ! gallon milk jugs? I've got two ravenous teenage boys and buy ALOT of milk....any experience carrying these seven pound jugs?

No problem, these racks hold a lot of weight. I carried the equivalent of one gallon on each side, plus other stuff, and I felt they could have carried a lot more.

Definitely. I've carried four twelve-packs of soda (the long ones) before. The issue will be how strong your carrier rack is -- the vertical struts might bend. But the baskets themselves are very, very strong.

One basket can fit two 1 gallon milk jugs just fine. I have the Wald rack and two of these baskets and that system is very strong. 4 gallons of milk is no problem.

Absolutely zero problems hauling upward of twenty-five pounds per basket - but get the strangest rack you can find - my first rack (a cheapie with only one stay per side) was utterly inadequate. Check the weight ratings on your rack - I routinely exceed fifty pounds of groceries with these baskets, so your rack needs to be rated at least that high if you plan on really loading them. The baskets, as far as I can tell will handle anything you can stuff into them, unless you're into recycling lead ingots.

Yes they will handle the 5 gallon jugs. This unit is amazing I would order it again. I like it better than our previous unit.

The shelves are screwed in and I have a gallon of water stored on the two bottom shelves. They weigh about 8.3 lbs ea. One gallon per shelf is all that will fit. If the cans aren't too heavy they should hold up quite well depending on how many cans and their weight.

No, the different sizes are just different capacities. I own both sizes and the largest is very big, as it would easily hold gallon size jug of milk. The smaller one would maybe hold 4 cans of soda. I would only recommend purchasing the large one if the extra size is not inconvenient as it would suffice for almost anything. I've used the larger one for overnight trips.

No, these bottles are too wide. They are great for storing the milk afterward tho.

We usually buy 50lbs. At a time and store in our pantry in one gallon plastic Tupper ware style containers. We have a smaller plastic canister or Mason jar that we fill from the larger containers so we don't have to lift the larger ones.

Sorry to respond so late. I have not tried them yet. I have every confidence that it would do fine. Whole milk works great.

Absolutely! I have used these in the past to get groceries. To which I had 2 gallons of milk, several bags of chips, various canned goods, a box of cereal, and more.

I use separate container for storing - about 5Gal will do (I use Staniles Steal milk can :))

I could put fluid in one and check. However, not really sure I would trust them to hold liquid or even food for that matter. I bought them for documents since they are label by inches and not by quarts or gallons.

Yes as long as you don't overload them. Product details state that the maximum weight is 55 pounds. I use this size as well as the larger 32x14x13 tote to carry in groceries but also handy for loading up clothing or items to be donated. They are very sturdy as well as versatile. You can just wipe them clean with a damp cloth, depending what stained them of course.

No. That's why I use a gallon bag to store them. It's a store-brand Ziploc equivalent and holds up to 66 (three boxes worth) and takes up less space than the original box or the silly dispenser sold with some. I just checked them against a quart-size bag. You could fit maybe half a box in one, if bag size is an issue. But no, they are not individually wrapped or anything like that.

I don't see why it can't hold any of the things you've mentioned. The bottles are strong and sturdy, however, keep in mind these are only 2oz bottles.

I'm guessing you're only feeding him/her an ounce or so, right? These containers hold around 6. So they might be a bit big now, but you'll be glad you have them in a few months. You might want to look at getting some of the oxo tot containers too, those are great for smaller portions. They even have measuring marks so you know how much your feeding them. I love mine, I have two sets.

We were pleased with the bags. Generally speaking we used them for our farmer's market. I don't know exactly what weight they can carry. I would say they're average weight and can carry about what you get in your normal plastic grocery bag.

I didn't use milkies, but you can definitely save milk. I have over 400 oz frozen from these. No pumping!! They are just little plastic discs- hole in the middle for nipple- with a dome cover. There is an air hole that will leak if you bend over too far or collect over an ounce and a half. I didn't mind much though. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. I went for these instead of milkies because of the price!

Depends on the bottle size. If there is a 30 day supply per bottle then that sounds like the standard size and I would say you could hold 20+ if you laid them on eachother.
