Looking for stackable water containers

[tyler91913]

I'm looking for a more compact way to store my RODI water. Currently I store it in a 32 gal trash barrel on a dolly in my living room closet, but I live in an apartment and closet space is valuable. I'd like something like these, but I'm hoping there are local and cheaper ways to get them than online at $30 a pop.

Any ideas? I looked at HD yesterday without success. I may end up just using 5 gal pails, but I'd prefer rectangular solids if I can, since they are more space-efficient.

Another one on the website you were searching. Search SKU 75052

Those are good ideas Collin, but I'm still loathe to shell out 50 or 60 bucks on four or five plastic containers. I'll hem and haw on this a while, and keep my eyes open. I was hoping someone here would be able to say, "Oh, that's easy--just look at such-and-such a store in North Haven/Branford/Waterbury/whatever. You can get the same thing for $5 a pop and not have to pay for shipping either."

Maybe you can try giving agway a call and see if they might have something.

I actually used to have square 5 gallon storage containers with a ball valve on them I bought at walmart when they used to sell RO water not sure if they still have them or not but worth looking into

Try searching Craislist for food grade containers. I just picked up 2 -55 gal. containers that held olive oil for 50.00.
