25 gallon drum

[jamie]

hi guys anyone know of a good site where i can get my hands on a 25 gallon drum. going to be for ro water. just got a ro/di system today. it'll be kept in the garage for now, but might possibly kept out side in the future. unless keeping it outside is an absolute NO. is there anything i need to be looking out for when shoping around for a drum. does it have to say, Safe for water storage or anything like that. as always thanks. you guys are great

Just power wash it. Same Price as a trash can, and sturdier for piece of mind. I have had a 55 gallon trash can buckle, not fun.

Not all trash cans are created equal. Was it a brute?

@Coral reefer It was not a brute.

One has the removable top, another one takes a Brute top and (I know I mentioned 2 but) anotherone I didn’t get to cut the top off...

 

[jamie]

top doesn't have to be removable.
