I bought Gamma2 Vittles Vault Pet Food Container as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I built the storage-bin drawer frame on the patio from a measured layout. I joined the timber, added inside corner brackets and fitted the base before moving on to the lining.
I cut the rubber mat with scissors, cleaned the wood and used spray adhesive in sections with a roller. Screws and washers attached the mat, and the slides joined the drawer to its surrounding cabinet frame.

My build notes
The drawer went through several distinct stages before it could slide in the cabinet. The photographs show the exposed frame first and the lined drawer later, making the changes in access and fastening positions visible.
Measuring, framing, lining and slide installation were separate stages of the drawer assembly.

The IRIS alternative adds wheels to a tall container. The Buddeez version uses a pour-spout format, offering a different way to access food within a storage area.
IRIS Wheeled Pet Food Container
This IRIS container stores dry food in a tall lidded body. Wheels provide a different way to move the container within a storage area.
