Storing dry grain - I wouldn't worry. FWIW I pickup up a 5 gallon food grade bucket at HD today - about $4. I needed it for wet curing in the dorm fridge.

When Food Babe was about 3 I fermented more than a few batches in a plastic trash container with a plastic bag from the cleaners for the lid. Turned out good enough for what we were brewing then.

Monks used to ferment beer in a thing made of rocks

when I was buying new, I went for the white plastic food grade buckets from Lowes (they had a sticker on them, if that means anything), and gamma seal lids. Those things get pricey really quickly when you are buying 14 of them!

 

Since you already have the buckets though, I would echo what others have said, and not to worry about it.
