Reddit mentions: The best take out containers

If you decide to add other apps I like to use Favor's bag for other deliveries. Larger, can stretch, the material looks better and best of all, it has a shoulder strap as well and that makes deliveries so much easier.

If you don't want to work Favor, that's also understandable. I found some bags on Amazon:

• these are a little bit larger, probably twice the size of Doordash's bags. They fit most standard bags fine, but larger carry outs that cant be placed sideways may be a problem. No shoulder strap though :/ I personally use two of these.
  
• This one looks good for the 20 inch pizzas, if it was maybe $20 I would consider getting one but $30 is a little pricey for me. Peeps will have to settle for the boxes it comes in for now I guess.
  
  I honestly don't know why it's so damn hard to find a bag sold commercially with a shoulder strap. I guess you could buy another bag and if you have some sowing skills add a strap yourself. Would anyone else be interested in something like this? Shoot, maybe I should start up my own business, selling gear for DD or other drivers that they won't sell :)
  
  Edit: I found a $23 22 inch carrier for pizzas! Beeeeeeet! As for shoulder straps just buy a replacement one and DIY it like I mentioned :)

Not really, no formula. In fact, once you perfect a method it only works for that bean. Buy a different bean, dial it in. Cold brew is one of the more forgiving methods.

I recommend setting up a bunch at once, with various methods in tiny containers (think like those sauce containers with plastic lids) record each method and length of time, temperature it sat at, etc. Then taste them all and see which you liked best

Gotta get it how ya live it. Also, the cups in the middle for the “sour cream” aka plain Greek yogurt and sauce are 2 oz deli cups. They fit just as well in the containers and are great for storing dressing if you wanted to put a salad or something of the sort in a container. They work pretty well for Jell-O shots too lol. I either hand wash them or throw them in the dishwasher.

Hits in our house:

• divided tupperwares with pre-made lunchables... crackers, chopped chicken or ham, and cheese you can really assembly line these and stick a small juice box inside too and we leave enough for one each low enough for them to pull out whenever they want.
  
  
• Pizza biscuits. Cut biscuits in half, get the kids to shape it into pizza dough, splotch of marinara sauce and sprinkle of cheese. Cheap, they make and assemble them, I bake them.
  
  
• Date rolls. They taste chocolatey and the kids like how sugary they are.
  
  
• Yogurt ranch dip and cucumber chips. This is easy to stick in a 2oz container and small tupperware and let them, again, pull it out whenever.
  
  
• Cut fruit. Apples, pre-peeled oranges, grapes, watermelon... I usually put some vanilla yogurt in a 2 oz container with it.
  
  
• Applesauce. You can buy this in giant tubs and split it into serving cups with lids.
  
  
• Granola bars from the discount grocery store. The mini quaker oats kids-sized bars or something like that are like $1 a box at mine.
  
  
• Trail mix. Trader Joes has small, pre-made trail mix bags. The chocolate one is the kids' favorite.
  
  
• Premade chocolate milk. Good lightweight snack for littler ones.
  
  
• Cereal. Too easy, and we'd put it in a tupperware bowl with a small carton of milk.
  
  I bought a ton of cheap kid-friendly tupperware and bulk disposable 2oz condiment cups for drinks, sauces, all of it. All of it gets thrown in a tupperware they can grab out of the fridge and eat themselves.
  
  I bought stuff like this : https://smile.amazon.com/Plastic-Bottles-Evident-MT-Products/dp/B06XKYZJD4/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1519783874&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=kid+friendly+small+sealable+milk+jug#customerReviews

  I really only made the kids when they'd come over eat 1 meal at the table with us. The rest they just grabbed whatever they wanted from the fridge.. and I made them eat outside at their table so if they spilled I'd just hose the whole area off haha.

i'm striving for this as well. my wedding is more of a backyard bbq, so it may be a little different than a traditional wedding. we're opting for electronic invites (through paperless post), biodegradable plates/cups/utensils (i found a great deal at a yard sale. the women used to be an eco-wedding party planner!), green burlap table runners, second-hand dress from poshmark. no plans at the moment for favors, but if we decide, we'll opt for biodegradable take-home containers so people can bring home leftovers. best of luck!

Some friends would get these water pouches intended for travel, and fill it with tequila before going on a cruise ship. As long as it is a clear alcohol, it goes undetected and you'll be able to keep your buzz going the entire trip, as well as a positive bank account balance!

I have something similar to this in my quiver of delivery bags that I mainly use, but it's not quite the same.

I use it for envelopes for logistics and for grocery bags for PN and WF. For restaurants I make sure it's flat on the passenger floor and use one of my Pizza bags to build a nest so the food doesn't tip over while driving.

There is this awesome bag for PM that is compartmentalized that I want for Christmas but it's 80 bucks and Postmates logos all over it. It would be great if you had a hatch, but if not you would have to even out a seat to prevent food from shifting to one side. I think it's meant to be saddled to a rack on a motorcycle tho.

sure can!

My favorite meal prep container is the Newspring VERSAtainer model: NC-868-B. Here is a link for them on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Newspring-VERSAtainer-Rectangular-Microwavable-Container/dp/B005K8ODZK

Also, I am able to get these locally at a store called Restaurant Depot (As the name implies, it is a store for wholesale food/restaurant equipment. However, you do need a tax ID to get a card there).

The containers at Restaurant Depot cost ~$38 for 150 pieces. Making them ~25 cents/piece. Although, even if you get them on amazon, it is still pretty cheap at ~45 cents/piece (shipping included).

It's all good, I actually found exactly what I was looking for , just wish it was cheaper 😭. I better get tipped more for it lol.

I use the bevbag and it works pretty well. I also got the drink holder insert for it. If anything does spill it’s easy to rinse or wipe off.

Our local Gurudwara made a small change some time back about recycling water bottles and reducing the use of plastic utensils.
The plastic bags to take food home is a very good area to improve upon, but i am not aware of many other viable options. The containers need to be sealed and airtight due to curry base of many food items. other items which dont leak, we can use paper/cardboard takeout containers(something like this)

I usually decline/unassign orders with alot of drinks. Just out of annoyance/lazyness.

​

If you want to deal with them, you could invest in a good drink carrier. Something like this would probably work well.

At this point I would just buy disposable containers and tell him to just chuck them every day. Is it environmentally friendly? No. But you're spending money buying new containers anyways so might as well save yourself the headache of all this. Amazon has some, here's 200 for $28.

You can probably find smaller packs or a better price. They work great. Bit of food in each one, every other day written on each one. (minimal feeding to keep toxins down since you don't want to ask a sitter to do water changes)

HIDE THE REST OF THE FOOD

i use this bag i bought from target

i also use this bag for drinks which i sometimes leave in that bag-https://www.amazon.com/BevBag-Shoulder-Reusable-BevTray-4-Cups/dp/B07K8SJHV3/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=beverage+bag+delivery&qid=1567713221&s=gateway&sr=8-9

​

the first one i mention is big enough to put large bags in which is perfect and wide enough.

That ones is ok but this one is better BevBag 4R Cubed Drink Carrier... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K8SJHV3?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I just put a small cup of distilled water in it. I have some little condiment saucers (like for ketchup or things - something kinda like this http://www.amazon.com/P015-Plastic-Souffle-Capacity-Translucent/dp/B007G0X63U/ref=sr_1_49?ie=UTF8&qid=1381514299&sr=8-49&keywords=condiment+cup) that I use because they have more surface area than a shot glass, so they'll evaporate quicker. Using this method it only takes me a few days to get some good humidity in there.

Look on the bright side Buffalo, you can get 500 games worth of these for $55

On Amazon they go for $124 for 50 boxes. Normal pizza boxes go for $20 for 50. Easy to see why they haven't taken off when they are more than 6x more expensive.

And I'm not sure exactly what size containers you have, but I can fit two of these just in the bottom compartment of the bag, so I would think you have more than enough space

This is the best looking one I've found, but it doesn't list the dimensions; also a little pricey

Edit: It does show the dimensions in one of the pictures

Try shots in these cups.

The accordion bottom makes it easy to get the jello out.

I use 4 oz condiment cups. I keep the lids on when not in use.

Basically these except I get them at Smart and Final.

I did some searching and bluvoy the company most recommended dash bag by reddit has this drink bag similar. It costs 30 bucks.
