Let’s begin with a truth so universal it should be printed on a throw pillow.
If you ever hid something growing up, it was found.
Diaries.
Emergency Cash.
Burner Phones.
Playboys.
Sex toys hidden from your partner because it was a better orgasm.
That thing you said “I’ll put that away later” and then absolutely did not. Something hidden so well you forgot where it was and accused everyone else of stealing it.
Your Parents found it.
Your Partners found it.
Uncle Rico found it.
Every. Single. Time.
Which brings us to “cannabis.”
Cannabis is legal for adults 21 and over.
Cannabis is not for children.
And keeping cannabis out of reach of kids is not optional.
It’s your responsibility.
Full stop.
This is a public service announcement with jokes, because people read jokes. But the message is serious.
Lock it up.
Why safe cannabis storage matters.
Safe cannabis storage protects kids, pets, and your freedom. Accidental ingestion is real and dangerous, and leaving cannabis unsecured can lead to serious health risks and legal consequences. This is not about being paranoid. It is about being smart. (Okay, yes, we are absolutely paranoid about it.)
Your sock drawer is for socks.
Let’s talk about the sock drawer.
The sock drawer is the first place anyone looks.
Kids look there.
Guests look there.
(Especially because they know that’s where Aunt Rita keeps “The Rita Rocket.”)
And your future self will absolutely look there . . . panic-searching for the thing you hid from yourself and immediately forgot about.
Also, no one wants socks that smell like weed. That’s not rebellious. That’s laundry sadness.
The rule that actually matters.
If someone under 21 can find it,
it isn’t stored safely.
Lock it up. Every time.
Lock your cannabis in a lock box or safe.
The safest way to store cannabis is in a lock box or small safe.
You can buy one online for about thirty dollars.
That’s less than dinner. Less than shoes. Less than whatever you accidentally bought at 2 a.m.
If you have more product, get a bigger safe.
If you forget combinations because you’re human, save the code in your phone.
Just don’t write it down.
Don’t tape it nearby.
And definitely don’t put it in the sock drawer.
Kids love finding things. Don’t turn cannabis storage into a scavenger hunt with consequences.
Even if you don't have kids.
Maybe you have children.
Maybe you don’t have children.
That doesn’t mean children don’t have access to your space.
Think about nieces or nephews.
Friends with kids.
Family visiting.
Babysitters.
Guests who show up with children and zero warning.
Kids are curious.
They explore.
They touch.
They taste first and ask questions never.
Safe cannabis storage means assuming a child could be in your space at any time . . . because at some point, one probably will be.
Just left the dispensary? Read this.
Congratulations.
Now don’t treat that bag like fast food.
Don’t leave cannabis loose on the seat.
Don’t toss it in the cup holder like a receipt.
Keep it out of reach and out of sight.
Store it in the trunk or a locked container.
Transporting cannabis responsibly helps avoid legal trouble and extremely uncomfortable conversations. Responsible transport is part of responsible cannabis use.
Vapes need extra care.
Cannabis vapes should never be left lying around.
They’re small, easy to grab, and easy to mistake for something else—especially by kids.
Counters, tables, nightstands, and desks are not “just for a second” places.
When you’re done using a vape, store it in a locked container.
Safe vape storage prevents accidental use and protects everyone in your home including you.
Yes, this feels obvious.
That’s why we’re saying it anyway.
Clear. Adult-only. Always.
We design our products with clear adult-only messaging.
We don’t disguise cannabis as something else.
Yes, one of our brands is called DOPE ROPE.
Yes, the irony exists.
No, there’s no confusion about what it is.
We do not market to anyone under 21. Ever.
Every Detour product clearly states:
THIS PRODUCT IS FOR ADULTS 21 AND OVER
NOT FOR KIDS. EVER.
STORE SECURELY
Because responsible cannabis brands don’t joke about safety,
even when they joke about everything else.
Final reminder.
You hid magazines.
You hid cash.
You hid things that vibrate.
You hid things you swore no one would ever find.
And they were found.
Cannabis is different.
No one under 21 should ever find it.
Not accidentally.
Not once.
Not ever.
So, for your family, your friends, your freedom, and your peace of mind:
Lock it up.
Safe cannabis storage saves lives.
Thank you.
