i used to live by these and have had several blue drums for animal feed and even a dog kennel made out of a big version,
just looking on website and they do food buckets and water containers now so maybe worth a visit again.

I did a group buy on these a few years back, but I use a different place now,

I know the MD so get preferential rates, a dozen eggs gets a couple of 30ltr barrels ;)

See if they give a good discount for cash, I think the last one I got from Smiths was £11 for a 30ltr :shock:

In three words I can sum up everything I have learned about life: It goes on.

I use Ampulla for my 20 liter buckets.

I wanted to buy some IBCs from Smiths but couldn't afford it back when I was thinking about it.
