Buckets and pails are essentials you can count on around the home, yard and workplace. Whether you're mopping floors, mixing paint, hauling supplies or organizing your garage, the right bucket makes the job easier. The selection at Ace Hardware includes mop buckets, plastic buckets, metal pails and more built to handle whatever your project demands.
Types of Buckets and Pails
No matter the task, we carry a bucket or pail designed to help you get it done right the first time.
- Mop buckets with built-in wringers, wheels, draining shelves or hand-powered wringer systems for fast, efficient floor cleaning.
- Cleaning and utility buckets, including dual clean and rinse compartment designs, sturdy handled buckets and pouring spouts for easier, splash-free emptying.
- Paint buckets sized for mixing, carrying and applying coatings, stains and varnishes.
- Storage buckets and pails, including bucket-and-lid options for organizing hardware, pet food and seasonal supplies, as well as small metal pails for decorative or outdoor use.
Bucket Sizes for Every Task
From compact pails for quick household jobs to large-capacity options for heavy-duty work, we have the right size for you.
Small Buckets
Our small bucket options start at 2-quart models, ideal for everyday cleaning jobs, organizing small items and tools or transporting liquids around the house. Mid-range sizes in the 3- to 4-gallon range work well as cleaning buckets for pairing with your favorite mop and floor cleaner.
5 Gallon Buckets and Large Pails
When the job calls for more capacity, 5-gallon buckets and larger pails deliver. These heavy-duty bucket options are built for construction, renovation, agricultural work or even icing beverages at a summer BBQ. Many include handles for comfortable carrying under heavy loads or wheels for larger mopping jobs.
Plastic vs. Metal Buckets
Choosing the right material depends on how you plan to use your bucket.
Plastic Buckets
A plastic bucket is lightweight, economical and tough enough for daily use without splitting or cracking. Most of our plastic buckets are made from polyethylene or polypropylene for lasting durability.
Metal and Galvanized Buckets
Metal buckets offer superior strength and longevity. A galvanized bucket features a weatherproof, corrosion-resistant finish that's fully rated for outdoor use. If you need a pail that can handle the elements season after season, our steel and galvanized bucket options are a smart choice.
Bucket Accessories and Cleaning Essentials
Complete your setup with accessories and supplies that pair perfectly with your buckets and pails.
- Lids and caddies to convert any bucket with lid into organized, sealed storage
- Bucket belts for hands-free carrying on the job site
- Mopsand brooms for a complete cleaning routine
- Floor cleanersand disposable gloves for safe and efficient work at home or on the job
