WTB: 55 Gallon plastic drum.

[JStrider]

I'm looking for a 55 gallon plastic drum, used is fine, as long as it was used for food or something non toxic.

black would be the prefered color, but it doesnt matter much

being on the northside of town, or willing to meet at the GHAC meeting would be a definite plus.

let me know what you have, and how much you want for it, Thanks!

Check that place (can't remember the name) next to the closed Parrott store on I45 just south of Rawford/Sawdust road.

Re: WTB: 55 Gallon plastic drum.

I purchsed mine in beaumont but there is a place in Humble that has them for $55. I called and they do have them in stock.    When you pull up the website it's the blue plastic drum on the left next to the one that looks like cardboard. They actually use these at the plants here in port arthur to store drinking water.

was a place on Hwy 105 east of Conroe that always had some outside.   think they were from the Pepsi distributor near there.   if you don't find one I will ask a friend who works that way to look and possibly get acontact number.  V

Re: WTB: 55 Gallon plastic drum.

Howdy,

I have a handfull of black & blue plastic drums with removeable lids (metal band and black lid), they were NEW when I got them last year and have swordtails in them now.  Let me know if you are intereted, I can empty them out and put the fish in other barrels.  $25 each if I have a lid for them other wise $20 each. I will be at the HAS auction on Sunday and can bring them then.  Or I might be going through Houston in the next couple of weeks.  I live on the Galveston side of Houston.  PM me or call me if interested 409-771-3305.  Please let me know by noon on Saturday so I can empty them out and wipe them down so they will be clean and dry for you.  They might be 50 gallon size, just slightly slimmer then a 55 gallon barrel.  I will count how many I have of the blue and black tonight.  later, ken
