Trying to source 40-50 gallon water mixing station containers

[Randrew215]

I drove to the tractor supply store south of Buffalo and have looked on line. I'm having a difficult time finding a vertically shaped container in Buffalo and it's ~$100 to buy online and ship. I can't use a brute because whatever I end up getting will be visible in the house. I can build an attractive housing for the right receptacles, but two brutes I can't really work with.
Any ideas on a local source, or am I better off just eating it on the shipping?

In case it's unclear, I need two containers (one for salt, one for fresh).

Search craigslist- you should be able to find someone selling 55 gallon plastic drums. I bought some from a guy in silver creek for 12 bucks each- food grade.

I saw that, but I'd prefer to go smaller than two 55 gallon drums in my living room.

Oh, I see what I've done. I meant to type 30-40 gallon container. My bad.

42 gallon rubbermaids are on sale for 8-9 bucks each at homedepot they are tall can if you would be interested in something like that. no wheels on those either.

i know what your going through. I ended up just getting a Brute for now because i did not want to pay for shipping! It is a lot to ship them containers.
I think at Volvo rentals they have something similar to what your looking for. At my work i seen a container and asked and was told that where it came from. I believe it was a 30 gallon container. Ill see if i can find anything on it.
This was about 2 weeks after i already bought the brute and wheels. So for now thats what i have.

That is in rochester also just seen your in b-low but theirs got to be a Volvo Rents out that way also.
