Store your white onions in a cool and dry spot in your kitchen, such as your pantry or counter. Make sure the storage space is ventilated to allow moisture to escape and keep your onions from stinking up any smaller spaces you keep them in. This means no storing your onions in plastic bags. Properly stored, white onions can stay fresh for up to a month, or even a couple of months if you have a cellar or a cool garage to keep them in.
Do not refrigerate your whole white onions, as the air in refrigerators can turn their starches into sugars, speeding up the decaying process. However, if you have leftovers from a cut onion, you should keep those in the refrigerator.
White onions are pretty good about letting you know when they have gone bad. Visual cues include signs of mold, discoloration, or sprouts. If you feel the onion and find that it is soft, it's time to throw that onion out. You should also smell your onion. If it smells like anything besides a fresh onion, you might want to toss it in the trash or compost.
