A storage container apparatus comprises four elements. The first element is a top of a compartment with a substantially horizontal surface and an outer edge that is within 0.25 inches of the sides proximate the bottom of a commercial material container. The second element is sides of the compartment that joins the outer edge of the top, extends downward, and ends in a beaded edge. The third element is a base of the compartment with a top, bottom, and edge. The top of the base has a groove channel proximate the edge that is able to detachably attach to the beaded edge of the side and the edge of the base extends outward from the channel at least 0.13 inches. The fourth element is a joining element that affixes the top of the storage compartment to the bottom of one of at least two differently branded commercial material containers.
