Procedures for handling processed lettuce:

Upon receiving pre-cut lettuce, store immediately in the coldest portion of your cooler or refrigerator, ideally 34 to 36 degrees fahrenheit. For best results, rehydrate salads before use. Add two ounces of crushed ice or ice cold water to each five pound bag to give an eye appealing appearance with a crisp, fresh texture.

If you are not going to use the complete bag of lettuce, remove as much air as possible from the bag, reseal, and refrigerate.
