FAQs
Are these containers BPA free?
Yes, these Harbour Housewares containers are manufactured from food-safe, BPA-free plastics suitable for meal preparation.
Can I put these in the freezer?
Absolutely. These containers are freezer-safe, making them ideal for long-term food storage.
Is the material clear or opaque?
The containers are typically semi-transparent, allowing you to identify the contents inside without opening the lid.
Are they leakproof?
They are designed to be secure for standard meals, but they are not 100% leakproof for thin liquids like soups when carried in a bag.
What is the best way to clean them?
They are dishwasher safe, but hand washing with a soft sponge will help maintain the clarity and integrity of the plastic over time.
Do the lids nest with the containers?
Yes, both the containers and the lids are designed to nest, which helps keep your kitchen drawers and cupboards organized.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not seem to snap closed correctly
Ensure the container rim is clean and free of food debris, then apply firm, even pressure to all corners of the lid.
Stubborn food stains after dishwasher cycle
Soak the container in a solution of warm water and baking soda for 30 minutes before scrubbing gently.
Lid feels loose after microwave use
Allow the container and lid to cool to room temperature before attempting to reseal, as plastic can temporarily expand when heated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before first use, it is recommended to wash the containers in warm, soapy water. When sealing the containers, ensure the lid is aligned correctly with the rim before applying pressure; listening for a click ensures the seal is locked. For microwave use, ensure the lid is removed or left slightly ajar to allow steam to vent, preventing pressure buildup. While dishwasher safe, placing them on the top rack is recommended to prolong the lifespan of the plastic. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads when hand-washing to keep the finish smooth and stain-resistant.
