LF:75-100 Gallon Storage Water Tank

[Bandomo]

On the hunt for two large storage water containers in good condition. Tank Depot currently has a 2 month lead time. Not looking for the cheap containers sold on craigslist or Brute Trash Cans. Unfortunately I live in a condo and Association is quite strict on what can be placed on the balconies.

If anyone has a nice mixing station for sale, please let me know.
Cheers,

What about those blue barrels at Western Beef? Holds about 70 or gallons and all you need are Uniseals to be able to attach PVC to build your system. The blue might be an eye sore for association but the clear/opaque white they have will turn green due to sunlight after a while.

Just throw a BBQ grill cover over it

Yeah, I was eyeing those. If worse comes to worse, I'll use those as a last resort.

Marvin, nice try, lol

Lol. Actually I did this for my white barrel to block sunlight. Now I just leave it off.

Try Craigslist for the water containers. 100g runs about $100 to $150.

Not sure if it will fit your budget, but these are good storage tanks. Has "manway" on top that seals well, and you can install bulkheads to do anything you want.

That's about the cost of Tank Depot, that brand is very good. We use their products at work for our Publix accounts.

Does anyone know dimensions of these and how much they are??

Think they are 23" in diameter, not sure of the height. Here's bmanzie's post with pics

They are about 23", 24" tops the last time I measured. Not sure how high it is... I'm getting old. I know how you feel now Eddie. LOL
