I get mine premixed as a solution, and it's just stored in a plastic container with a screw-on cap. I don't think it is corrosive to most plastics. It also keeps for a long time in solution.

You can store it in a plastic container or in a glass container.But the cap should be plastic or glass.Plastic is more safe.
No need special container . EX - Gel cup
