it is best pratice to store it in the origanal container so you know what it is and the safty data and use of the product is there for any one to read
can you make a wooden box to stand the bags in and a boot lace to fasten the part bags up
How is sealing it in a more air tight container going to reduce the shelf life? Of course it will work. To address Neil's point, cut the label off the original bag and sellotape it to the bucket.
Yep, go for plastic tubs and fold the bag and put it in the bucket with the feed. I'd imagine a 30l tub would take a lot more than just 10kg.
I use 25 litre buckets I got from Amazon

I use them for storing Perlite, which I get in 100l sacks, making it a lot easier to handle. We tried storing compost in them as well, but as they are kept in a shed, they were getting condensation. And consequently the contents were going mouldy.
To overcome this I drilled a couple of small holes in the sides at the top, to aerate and this worked well. My advice fertilser no problem, I use old tubs that contained bonemeal. Seed maybe trickier.
I looked at 25s but the 30s worked out cheaper.
