Excellent labeling! We use a similar system for our in process stones being tumbled and filler media, however it not nearly so neat and clean.

I store my stuff almost exactly how you do. I use Rubbermaid Takealong boxes that are very inexpensive. I think it’s rally important that grits be stored in sealable boxes so they don’t get contaminated.

I have a plethora of mixed and matched plastic containers. Some Rubbermaid, some old peanut butter jars. My bulk coarse grit is in 5 gallon buckets.
Yours is Pinterest perfect!

What?!?! No container of pea gravel (polished aquarium gravel)? I am shocked!
Gosh I am in awe of your organized approach to storage! Well done+++
I use various plastic containers and used pistachio nut bags for storage... stored anywhere my daughter can't run over as she parks her car. LOL!

As Rob Jugglerguy taylor and fantastic5 and others made mention too using SEALED CONTAINERS this will help Prevent CROSS CONTAMINATION in GRITS (call it the AIDS VIRUS) when your polishing your ROCKS . If your going to stack your grits always put your Finer Grits on Top of Yor Coarser Grits. I always uncap the grits several feet away from my Grit Cabinets and where I am working and filling my tumblers or Vibes and keep the Cabinet doors shut. The room gets a Vacuuming weekly. Ya just can't be too clean when your polishing these rocks. I store my larger of Grits up High and keep it bagged up and the lid sealed and when I fill the smaller containers I work out of the ones in the cabinets I make sure the lids are on tightly and the Cabinet doors are shut. The way I figure if something can go wrong it will and it will most likely happen to me! By keeping my 25lb Bulk media stored high it will be less likely the dust from the media will drift higher to contaminate my Bulk Media. I have also started storing all the Bulk Rocks that I have Acquired In plastic Containers with Snap Lids. I just ordered a New Thermal Printer that will do 3/4" Labels I have 3 others and my Panduit Label maker quit supporting the unit I had Click On Link Below To See The Thermal Printer I Purchased For Labeling. www.amazon.com/DYMO-Industrial-RHINO-Label-1755749/dp/B002M1DEM6/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1536203149&sr=8-10&keywords=dymo+label+maker
