Default What's the trick to preventing stacked plastic buckets from sticking together?

They were likely not completely clean, but if you run a twine down
the side of each bucket as you stack them you have a chance of
getting them apart later. Poly-twine like you use for pulling wires
into conduit.

I'd suggest using a piece of scrap Cat5 cable since I often have it
laying around. It will make enough of a gap for air to get by and you
find a use for your scrap. ^_^

TDD

I've usually got the poly-twine around.
