Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for lowbush, northern highbush and southern highbush blueberries. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Bruising from rough handling or mechanical harvesting shortens storage life. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
