Looking for restaurant supply store in Seattle

I want to buy 18L Cambro containers with lids in which to store flour. Purchasing from a restaurant supply store seems to be the most economical. I can’t find one in Seattle that sells to the public. Any pointers are much appreciated

For storing 25lbs of flour I use 5 gallon buckets. Add a Gamma Lid and they are leak proof.

If you want to stick with Cambro - do you have a Costco membership? They have some online or you can go to the Business Center in Lynnwood. Business Centers have more Cambro products than the other stores. I don't think they have  an 18L but they do have a 2 pack 22L for $28.

There are a couple of these stores in Western Seattle, and I know there is one over in Woodinville.  I shop for flour at the Woodinville store often.  US Foods Chef Stores used to be Cash and Carry.  They have your containers in many sizes.  Google maps will show you the locations.

i use the same big containers to store my flour too.  They work great, and are much easier to get open than gamma lids, for my arthritic hands anyway.

Best of luck
