Awesome ideas, I will never look at empty coffee containers the same way again. Need to start saving mine! Thanks for this useful information.
I use mine to send my son spiced tea when he was in Iraq , also for storing sewing projects , canning rings , probably the best is salt for winter ! I keep one container in front & back door ! I know there’s hundreds of other uses , I also label each one ! These plastic containers are pretty solid , I like the handle provided for you !
I like the handle too
I use them for food storage, dry cat food containers, piggy bank, cookie containers, small cleaning buckets, car tool storage and dry compost containers.
I like the cleaning bucket idea!
These are great ideas for people who haven’t thought about it before. I’ve been doing it for years, using them inside & outside of the house.😊
I've used them in my garage. Now watching for other ideas..
I so agree got my mind thinkin
I already use them to store stuff but you have some creative ideas too, thanks for sharing this video.👍💯🎯
Folders coffee is my favorite and I like the empty containers for many, many uses. Thanks Folgers!
Folgers, thanks but don’t raise the price
Add a roll of toilet paper to the empty can and take on a road trip.
They really do make great reusable containers
Thanks for additional uses! I use them when I’m painting! I just pop lid on and it’s ready to go when I’m ready to paint again. I label it for the room or area I’m painting! Helps when I have to match up paint too! ❤
one of my best paintings is on a folgers coffee container ,they will be good for a cookie jar that will never break
Love these ideas! I also save large lidded plastic peanut butter powder jars, so I can see what is in the jar (Screws, Bolts, Misc small parts).
Good idea!👍 I also use the Tic Tac containers for tiny screws and small nails.
I also use them to cover my outside pipes where I connect my hose. We do this in the winter and it keeps the pipes from freezing and breaking! I use them for so many things! 💖🌹
Wouldn't work in NE, PIPES WOULD FREEZE & BREAK..
They are also great for refrigerator storage for any foods that need a large container with a lid. They can be used for liquids such as soup, stew or broth. They can also be frozen (label first with masking or freezer tape).
Started having problems with roaches I have used the folders containers for most of my dry goods and me kitchen cooking needs. I also use them to organize my paints I am usually working on at least two to three paintings at once and I find the story the small acrylic paint bottles into these containers and then marking them with a number that coincides with the painting helps me to keep the right colors in one place. I also creat a paint swatch to put on top to help me get back on track!
Thanks for sharing this information with me.😊❤.I am not going to throw the coffee containers away.🙏🏾😊🌈❤️
I use mine for grease when I'm cooking. Let the grease cool and pour it into the coffee can
Me too
Great to till with water or sand to provide weight, I use in place of traffic cones for obstacle for horse training. When finished using the and putting in a large net bag just pour out the water. Can also use to elevate a pole to have horse to pay attention to its feet and pick them up when coming to an elevated pole that does not need to be jumped, but does need higher movement. I collected the empty containers from work because I needed a couple dozen to use for the arena, to mark the outline of a circle to practise making 30 M circles
I liked the plunger container idea!
I only used my empty coffee containers for change. Now I have tons more great ideas, all thanks to your video! ❤👍❤️
I use them for different things but really they are not airtight 😎☕
Maybe put a piece of plastic wrap over the top before putting on the lid. I think that would help.
My mom uses it for oatmeal.. theses are awesome 🙏
Folgers containers are good for everything and best, they are easy to handle. They are very sturdy. I used 4 of them one time, placed wooden planks on top to raise them from the ground. I needed my little Christmas Tree higher 😊
Here’s one that I used years ago when my first grandchild was born you take an empty large coffee canister, and a roll of paper towel the the towels are just about 3 inches too tall but if you take an electric knife and cut it and put the cut down, you can alcohol wipes you can make Clorox wipes when my grandchild is born. If you take the medium size one you could make two canisters of diaper wipes, you can use the paper towels or you can use the more expensive ones. I like bounty paper towel or even sparkle but if you add baby wash and warm water and a cap of alcohol that will keep your babies bottom fresh just cut an X in the lid for the center core out and Walla perfect wipes for everything I did this during the pandemic and I added essential oils or there was a cleaning one. It was called thieves you just add your water to it and an ounce of thieves and you’ve got wipes for a month or more, I also use Melaleuca. They got several different types of cleaning supplies that you could use with the paper towels happy cleaning.
I Made a canister set, of 5 pieces, of tea, sugar, grits, corn meal, and flour, sprayed painted them blue and black then put labels on each one. I love them, then a 3 piece set with dog treats in them, they sit on desk, looks really nice
Absolutely love my repurposed coffee containers
Oh my goodness I just emptied a huge one from Sam's Club was getting ready to toss it. Thank you
Thank you for so many wonderful ideas! Bless you 🙏
Read all the comments. Everyone has great ideas. The uses for them are unlimited. Hold grease underneath the kitchen sink; rock salt containers are great ideas. I have about 10 in use right now. One is dedicated for spare keys.
Take a small coffee can I clean it real good. Put in milk cream sugar vanilla or or if you'd rather you can add some sweetened condensed milk or chocolate. Put the lid on and then seal the bag in a large Ziploc bag. Put the small can inside of a large can and fill the large can with crushed ice and some salt and put the lid on that one as well. Then have your kids roll the can back and forth on the floor for about 30 minutes. It's an ice cream!
My husband uses them to put old nails and screws in during remodeling projects. Throwing them in the trash pokes holes in the bag so the container works perfectly.
I'v been saving them for decades! Domino and other products too! They stack vertically too for organization and storage for crafts of all kinds and are useful in the garage, garden, bathroom too! Great for camping and children's small toys or just to use as a drum!!
My mom and dad drink Folgers classic
What a wonderful vacation you four had!
I still have the coffee cans Daddy used for pdds and ends in the garage. He used to clean his paint brushes in turpantine and the metal coffee cans were great for doaki.g pain brushes. Please use caution around children ( goes without saying)..Daddy also nailed the lids of glass baby food hars to strips of wood, and the jars were used to organise small hardwear. Daddy was amazing❤
Awesome video! Thanks so much for sharing 👏👏👏
Speaking of Folgers containers, since I empty the coffee grounds, into a smaller container to keep at hand, I first slightly cut an opening, like a spout in the aluminum, for easy pouring.
Very thoughtful and useful!
I’m not new to the coffee can handiness. They are great for any thing really. Glad I’m not the only one.
Thank you!
I have dozens of them I used them for parts storage wirenuts ,boxconectors, screws, plumbing parts. I also fill some with rocksalt in the winter and place them near the doors
Great video. Thank you
Thanks, great ideas.
great vid. tyvm for the tips.
Ty for the great tips
Before I seen this,I’m using mind to store dry dog food n planting my plants.Thank you for sharing🙏
Great ideas!
Great ideas
Love it tysvm❤❤❤
I've used empty coffee containers for many years for various kinds of items.
I think they would look great spray painted in gold and some in silver!
Going to try that!
They also make really good sharps containers if you're someone who uses insulin syringes or you're going to basis. I take black electrical tape and tape the lid on tight. Then cut an X in the top. You can put the needle in but nothing falls out. Give it a try
Thanks for sharing this great information ❤
Love you video, great ideas!!!
They make great sharps continers. Also use them to store bagged coffee.
What a time to be alive! We’ve been shown the greatest hack ever! Use empty containers for a new purpose???? And those ideas, man! Cutting edge stuff!
😸 Some people can't recognize sarcasm...
@@zac1375 It didn't go unnoticed. Some people simply cannot edit or delete their put downs before they spew them to others. Some people do not realize that everyone isn't an adult. They don't realize that information doesn't come from the air. We must learn everything we know, and all information comes from other people originally. If we don't keep spreading information and just let it go because we think everyone already knows everything, then we deprive young people from learning. Repeated information is important, no matter how mundane.
Great for painting, handle is handy
Great informative video on awesome ideas! My husband and I do buy this coffee in these containers. 😊. Most of my family and friends use and buy the K- cups. I wish I knew how to get more of the coffee containers 🤷🏼♀️.
I use my empties on the patio to store food for my Koi pond fish, also handy in my garden sheds.
Love it! Been doing many of these things for years! I often use Duck Tape (that matches the can colors) to cover the bit of the area that the tape from the coffee label doesn't come off from. (Am STILL wanting Folders to make EXTRA LARGE decaf cans (green), like they have been their reg. coffee cans (red)!)
I used for storage of certain things like my mix and max nails and screws and whatever but I never thought of the gift ideas you was talking about thank you
One thing to remember is if you get a gift in one of these containers, you should be willing and ready to return the container if the person needs it back. One time I knew someone who gave fruit baskets. When the basket was empty, she requested the baskets to be returned for reuse. Recipients returned them as requested so the senior woman could reuse them to give people fruit baskets again in in the future. If you have someone who doesn't drink much coffee and then they reuse these containers, one thing you could reuse them for is for smaller packs of coffee if you really want to keep these containers
Good ideas
New sub here from Spokane Valley Wa 😊
Great ideas 💡👍 I use them for grease❤😊
Tks for sharing! Lots of good ideas! 👍🏻🧑🏻🦰🇨🇦
I've used them in the shop for years. They're great for nails,screws,wire nuts ect
great
I had narry idea reusing was both practical and possible !! And then to paint them ?! My widdle brain is just..over whelmed !! Thank Yew so much!!.
use them for a yarn barn. Punch a hole in the lid, place yarn in the container, thread your yarn through the hole in the lid, place the lid on the container and commence with your knitting or croche.
How do you remove coffee label?
with a coffee label remover
Soak it for days peel and scrap off soak some more repeat lastly use lighter fluid to remove the sticky stuff. To remove smells from plastic glass set out side in the sun for days until smells no more
Goo Gone helps to cleanly remove the labels. Then wash with soap and water.
Yeah goo gone cleans the sticky off of the glass after you soak them in water to remove the paper. Rodents will eat through the plastic Coffee containers But I do use them for non perishable projects like plants ,Sewing Materials, crafts that type of thing
@@lulabelle4760 I have been saving these containers for years and have not figured out how to get rid of the smell. Thanks for the advice of setting them outside in the sun. I will give that a try. I also have tons of laundry detergent canisters (for the pods). I don't think they would work for food storage (I'm not sure on that), but they would make great storage for other items, once I get rid of the smell from the products. Thanks for the advice.
I save the large cocktail peanut cannisters. They have a rectangular footprint so take up less space. If you have the patience you can peel the label off with no residue in a few minutes,
vegetable oil gets the labels off.
I've been doing this for awhile now.
Those are good ideas😅
i use my empty's for nuts-bolts-washers & various small hardware
I don't think folks need ideas of what to do with a container - it's how to debrand them so they can be labeled that's the hard part. I love the folgers containers (not really keen on the red though.. first aid supplies was a great idea) but I like coffee too much to drink their cheap Robusta beans. Cheapest crap on the coffee market but because it's so highly advertised people think it's good coffee. That trick is the only way they became household names. As the folgers containers are printed directly into the plastic, how are y'all getting that off? I would so love to know. Thanks.
toilet roll container ,camping stays dry..pass it on its in the coffee can!
Excellent emergency potty to keep in the car trunk.
I agree, always felt Ben Carson is the best choice
Welcome home, gentlemen and lady
Wow❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I do glass for pantry, but decorated into canisters on counter would be nice.
I save so many containers🤣
I made a decorative floor vase out of coffee cans
I do like reusing these containers. Here's the problem: if the container is dropped, the lid pops off. I've had a few messes because of this. Spilt sugar, spilt cat food, etc.
Try putting a strip of clear packaging tape on each side of the lid. Fold it under on one end to give you a spot to get hold of rather than smoothing it down to make it easy to open and reseal.
Sorting legos.
They can be used as antenna 's also 😊
I recycled my coffee canister into a mini trash can near my bed.
I agree with all of this, except one thing... how does a person wash out the fragrance or after odor and taste of the coffee?
You can soak the can in water with baking soda and dish detergent added. You can also soak in diluted vinegar water. Leave it for 24 hours and sniff. Very diluted bleach water would also probably do the trick.
That’s great; but it’s very hard if impossible to get the labels off of the Folger or Maxwell house containers.
I use mine for used kitchen oil or grease then when full just toss it away I've been doing this for years
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I use mine as protectors around my young trees to keep them from bring damaged by mowers or trimmers. I just cut off the bottom, cut a slit down one side, put it around the tree and the tree is safe! Even a novice mower is going to know not to cut down a tree in a red collar! (Husbands included!)
I prefer clear plastic jars for small bits so i can see what in it.
Plungers are larger than the coffee container.
so wha paint are you putting on thse plastic coffee canisters?
Question: I see some that are painted- what sort of paint would work on a plastic coffee container?
There are special spray paints made for plastic now.
I use these for all kinds of storage but I am wondering how to get the coffee smell out of them?!! I have soaked them with certain types of soap but nothing really gets ALL of the smell out!!! Thanks!!
You might want to try soda and white vinegar.
take the lid off, rinse it with soap and water and set it in the sun ...
@@user-wm4el5hv3c thanks
Who doesn't love the smell of coffee?
I use all my containers: There are two sizes and they come in red and green (green for decafe)
What paint covers & stays on ??
I use coffee pods.
Thank I'm never going to troud no more
