5.0 out of 5 stars BEST ROCK SALT WE'VE EVER USED AND ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC CUSTOMER SERVICE
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2020
We bought a bucket of Road Runner ice melter (what we call rock salt) from this company a year ago, and we LOVE the bucket and rock salt so much, we ordered another one for our adult son. FAST DELIVERY right to our doors. A 50 lb bucket! Great way to store rock salt. And my husband and I then order bags to refill the bucket. My husband says the lid is very tight and secure, keeps all the weather out. We love the bucket because then nothing spills, and nothing gets wet. Best invention for rock salt! We don't have the mess we used to when just using bags. We live in Salt Lake City, and even though I hate the snow and cold and ice, Road Runner rock salt saves the day for us. We've tried many other rock salts over the years, and they damage our concrete a lot. Road Runner rock salt has always been the safest and best for our concrete driveway and walkways. We go out of our way to find Road Runner, and we're grateful we found this seller. We've also compared prices, and this company offers very competitive prices. Yay! We'll keep buying Road Runner rock salt from this seller. Thank you for great customer service and very fast delivery. Impressed from SLC, Utah!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great ice melt once the top is removed
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024
As many other have stated, the top on the bucket seems welded on, but that is by design. Moisture will cause the product to clump and begin to liquefy if subjected wet, damp, winter weather.

To remove the top is a challenge that rivals my upper body workouts at the gym. Zip off the the seal which was easy. BTW, wear gloves during all of this. Real gloves, not nitrile 'hospital' gloves.

I took a long handle flat screwdriver and a rubber mallet to start the process and whacked the screwdriver under the lip of the top, lifted the screwdriver and started breaking the seal all around the top. Then a pair of pruning shears to make extra cuts on the top's rim. A pair of channel locks were handy but taking a piece of scrap wood and the mallet I hit the block upward all around to break the seal.

I have stored my opened vault in the furnace room with the top lightly tapped on. After removing the top I was too dang tired to use the ice melt; but got to it about a 1/2 hour later. BTW, I'm 73.

5.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to open but worth it

So once you get past the worlds tiniest plastic pull tab, you're golden (lol). I used some pliers to get a good grip on it so I could open the tub up, and that worked perfectly. The container is great for pet owners, though, since it won't ever leak & they can't creep into it when you're not home (plus you can refill it with the cheap bags from your local store when you're running low!). We use a scoop to fill up our Vigoro seed/salt spreader & it works like a charm. So far, this has been the only affordable ice-melt that could handle our -55F weather last year, so I'm sticking to it!

This is the best de-icer I've ever used. Worth every penny. You won't need to use as much as other brands.
