Hi all,
Im in the process of getting a bunch of used 55 gallon plastic drums. The price will be around 15-20 dollars each depending on how many I get. They held dialisis fluid when new, supposedly just saline but I cant confirm. I do have a few and have been using them to hold water with no problems, have had no chemical odors or weird test results, rinsed them well and cut to fit my needs and I was good to go. They have two holes on the top with caps, im sure you could get a valve drilled into the cap if you wnated to or you can cut the whole top off with a jigsaw. I can help with that if you need. If you may be interested drop me a note here and I will get a final count and see if I can get enough to keep everyone happy.

Anyway I can get a pic?

Thanks

UPDATE


Order has been placed, Im having them delivered to my house Price looks like 18.00 a piece with caps. I should have them saturday sometime, they will be in Deland but I may be able to transport them to you for a small fee depending on where you live and how fast you need them (Im in process of buying a new vehicle so may be a week or so) FYI I am also looking for a self priming pump that would be able to be placed on the ground next to the drum and have a hose run up the side and into the drum fro water transfer. If you have a spare we can work a trade plus cash deal.

Pic of the two I have can be found at www.showfocus.net/blue.htm . Dimensions are 23x35 roughly. They have 2 holes on the top, I think they are 2inch but may be wrong. They are standard sized and will accept barrel accessories. (I found valves and stuff at www.usplastic.com, but im not sure what we would need).... the one in the pic is upside down with the bottom cut open and hinged. Ill send PM's when i recieve them, its looking like around 930 am on saturday that I will have them.
 
UPDATE


Drums have been delivered. Im running some errands and should be home around 4, will send pms if I get home earlier. Come n get em!!!!!
