It depends what the hydroxide is; but common hydroxides (Sodium and Calcium hydroxides for instance) can be stored in glass bottles short-term. However, they do attack glass slowly, and equipment that is in regular contact with them can be damaged: burettes made of glass often sieze up after repeated use with these substances. Because of this slow but significant reactions, it is now more normal to see hydroxides stored in plastic bottles.
