Wood Chunk Storage

[DoodleQue]

I recently picked up a pellet smoker that also takes wood chunks. In researching how to store the wood chunks. I am reading conflicting information on whether the container should be airtight or allow airflow. My main goal is to keep the wood mold-free.

I have kept them in the cardbox shipping box they come in stored my garage for many years and they work just fine.

I keep my wood chunks in the original plastic bag that they came in. Stored on a shelf in my garage. No special sealing. I just roll the open end and lay the bag on its side. I have a bag or two that are a couple of years old and haven't had any issues.

I use a rubbermaid storage box without the lid in my garage. No issues. Also, I wood chunks in a five gallon plastic bucket too. No lid, no holes on both containers.
