Post by: sam peafield on March 16, 2009, 10:04:40 pm

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for getting hold of some 25 litre water containers fast, i dont want to wait for internet deliveries etc is there a high street shop/outlet that sells them ?

Thanks
sam

car washes, just have a look around the back and they will have them stacked up, they have to pay for them to be taken away by all accounts

go around ya local trading estate and look for a company that has or may have them.  Picked up 2 today for £4 brand new.  I found a local Metal Working Fluids & Rust Preventives company that has stacks of ibc tanks outside so i enquired and got lucky
