    Default bpa free 55 gallon drums

    have been looking at these:

    http://www.costco.com/Shelf-Reliance....11701766.html

    they are 115 or so if you buy one but come out to 91 if you buy the 8 pack. anyone in sw pa or the wheeling area interested?

    if there is a lot of interest maybe we could spearhead multiple regional purchases.

    also if anyone has a better suggestion i would be interested

    I don't think you need to buy new BPA free drums. There are plenty to buy on craigslist which are practically brand new and sell for 15-20 bucks. I have purchased several of these drums for drinking water and storage. They are just as good as new ones for a fraction of the cost.

    They have lids that will make an airtight seal. They are painted so it will be added rust prevention but I would think they would at some point.

    I also have plastic ones available but they are fixed lids.
