Plastic Barrel

**marrone** · 01-15-2006, 02:40 PM

I'm looking to get a 50gal plastic barrel to use to hold RO water. The Home Depot in the city doesn't have them, or even a large garabage can for that matter. Actually it doesn't have to be round it could be square. I can get them on-line but would rather pick one up local.

Look into Rubbermaid, they have 50g storage containers at places like Target for $10.

There was a guy in Jersey selling white 55g drums with water tight lids. Ask Rich, he picked up one and I still see the guy post on the FS forum on RC every now and then.

I found the link on RC and it looks like he has some left. Probably need to get it shipped but for $25 + shipping it way cheapier than what's on-line.

I have a bunch of Rubbermaid containers but I need something more compact for my kitchen.

Maybe you can get a Jersey MR member to pick it up for you. Entice them with an acan polyp.
