Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for topped beet roots (red/table beet). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Top and sort beets before storage to remove diseased or damaged roots; large roots keep better because they shrivel more slowly. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
