Stash & storage
by Juicy Jay's
Juicy Jay Storage Jars are airtight, UV-blocking plastic containers designed to keep your herb, resin, and concentrates fresh and discreet while you're on the move. Sold as a pack of two stackable jars in black with green detailing, they're compact enough to slip into any bag and sturdy enough to survive the journey.
That sandwich bag or random Tupperware you've been using? It's doing your stash no favours. Plastic bags let air in, crush trichomes, and do nothing to block light. The result: dry, flavourless herb that's lost half its character before you even grind it. Concentrates fare even worse — they stick to bag walls, pick up lint, and become a nightmare to scrape out.
These Juicy Jay jars solve the obvious problems. The airtight seal keeps oxygen exchange to a minimum, which slows degradation. The black plastic blocks UV light — the same wavelength range that breaks down cannabinoids and terpenes over time. And because they're rigid containers rather than squashable bags, your flower stays intact instead of getting compressed into a sad brick at the bottom of your rucksack.
One honest limitation: these are plastic, not glass. You won't get the same zero-permeability you'd get from a borosilicate jar. For long-term storage (months), glass is still king. But for daily carry, weekend trips, or keeping two strains separated on your desk? Plastic wins on weight, durability, and the fact that dropping one on tile won't end in tears and shards.

They're lighter than you'd expect — barely noticeable in a jacket pocket. The plastic has a slightly textured matte finish on the outside, not that cheap glossy stuff that shows every fingerprint. The lid threads on smoothly with about one and a half turns to seal. You get a satisfying little click when it seats properly. The green ring detail around the lid gives just enough visual contrast that you can tell which end is up in a dim room.
At 5.08 cm across, they're roughly the diameter of a 2-euro coin stack. Tall enough to hold a decent amount — we'd estimate 3-4 grams of ground herb comfortably, or a solid chunk of concentrate — without being so large they're awkward to carry. The stackable design means two jars together are still only about 20 cm tall, fitting neatly into a coat pocket or the small compartment of a backpack.

Complete your setup with a proper grinder — the SLX Ceramic Coated Grinder pairs well with these jars, since its non-stick coating means your ground herb transfers cleanly into the container without waste. If you're rolling Juicy Jay flavoured papers alongside these jars, grab a rolling tray to keep everything in one spot.
We've sold stash containers since the early 2000s, and the number one complaint people have with cheap options is smell leakage. Someone stashes a particularly loud strain in a zip-lock, throws it in their bag, and suddenly the entire tram knows what's in their rucksack. These Juicy Jay jars genuinely contain odour — we've tested with some properly funky strains in the shop. Not lab-grade containment, but more than enough for public transport without broadcasting your business.
The stackable feature is underrated. If you're the type who keeps a sativa for daytime and an indica for evenings, having two clearly separated containers that lock together means no mix-ups and no fumbling through multiple bags. Simple, but it works.
Yes. The threaded lid creates a seal that blocks air exchange effectively for daily use. They won't match a vacuum-sealed container, but for carrying herb over a few days to a week, the airtight closure keeps contents fresh and odour contained.
Absolutely. The smooth interior walls work well for concentrates. For very sticky extracts, consider using a small piece of parchment paper inside the jar to make removal easier and keep the jar cleaner between uses.
With dimensions of 10.16 cm tall by 5.08 cm diameter, each jar comfortably holds around 3-4 grams of ground herb, or roughly 5-7 grams of whole nugs depending on density. Enough for a weekend away without needing a bigger container.
They do. The opaque black plastic blocks UV wavelengths that degrade cannabinoids and terpenes over time. It's the same principle as amber glass medicine bottles — keeping light out preserves potency. Not a replacement for cool, dark storage, but a solid layer of protection for on-the-go use.
Yes, small Boveda or Integra Boost packs (the 1-gram size) fit inside with room to spare. This combination — airtight seal plus humidity control — keeps herb at the right moisture level for days or weeks, preventing it from drying out or going stale.
For everyday carry — in a bag, pocket, or car — they contain odour well. We wouldn't call them 100% smell-proof under extreme scrutiny, but for normal situations they keep pungent strains from announcing themselves to everyone nearby.
Soak in warm water for 10-15 minutes to loosen residue, then wipe clean. For stubborn wax buildup, a cotton bud with a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol works, but rinse thoroughly with water afterwards and dry completely before reuse.
