A canister for holding at least ten of reels of surface mount electrical or electronic components in a manner so that the reels can be removed individually through a slot located at the bottom of the stack of reels. The slot is preferably positioned and a recess provided so that a finger can be inserted under the lower surface of the lowermost reel without tilting the canister. The canister may be provided with an upper horizontal slot for insertion of reels one at a time and molded of a semiconductive plastics material that is opaque or alternatively stamped and rolled from sheet material such as aluminum or steel and coated with an anti-static paint. A vertical slot facilitates vertical sliding movement of a reel within the canister and provides visual access to easily determine the number of reels remaining for inventory control.
