LF/borrow: buckets or containers

[jasandenaw]

Planning to move a large tank this weekend and I could sure use a few extra buckets or other containers during the move and possibly during the days following. I'm near the I-17 and loop 101 and would be more than willing to pick up and return them when I'm done. Any help/ideas appreciated.

Oh, man, I'm right around the corner from you, and gave away all my extras when I sold my 55 last month! I have two 5 gallon buckets you can borrow, and 2 5 gallon water jugs you can have. I also have a 55 g a lion plastic barrel that has two holes in the side you could get 1 inch bulkheads and cap to seal if that would help. I'm going to the prop auction, but could even help if an extra hand is needed. PM me if you are interested, I'm at the Bell and 19th Ave area.

Moving mine I used 5 gallon buckets, coolers, 32 gallon brutes, and even a couple styrofoam.containers. I think more then moving water, you will want to have fresh water waiting for the tank at your house. Move just enough water to transport livestock and rock and sand. Start with fresh water. Youre going to get a mini cycle anyway and there isn't much contributed to the cycle by the water anyway.

I have a couple brute cobtainers you can mix up some water in and have waiting at your house. I've got a couple five gallons, some styrofoam containers, and a big 100 Qt cooler that you can use for the move also.

I appreciate all the kind offers... I was able to stop by Aquatouch on my lunch hour and found out that I could rent one of their large storage containers, hose, and pump. I think I'm going to go this route for now. Planning to transfer as much water as possible because I'm not currently set up with an RODI unit of my own. Clearly I'll need to get one soon. If something comes up or changes I may be in touch. Thanks again john and rio!

The day of prop is the day I plan to forge move. Early morning, and I think I've got 4 guys that can help. Enjoy the auction! And I'll let you all know how it goes.
