Think I am going to need to switch to using drums instead of buckets soon. Does anyone know where to get some that are not junk and what is a fair price.

I think he said he wanted good drums. DON"T BUY FROM THE PACKERS. I bought a whole semi load from a packer and they were JUNK.:eek: I paid $9.00 each + shipping and could only use part of them. I sold a whole load to a big packer last year in new barrels and didn't get a penny for them. This year got a quote from same packer $6.50+ shipping. That price would be OK if I got my new barrels back.

there is a place in syracuse/jamesville that sells used food grade barrels I will see If I can get the name of the company and post. Only warning I will give is we called ahead, they said they had them in stock, went down and they didn't have any. they also sell 5 gal pails and othe size pails, some prices were ok some high.

I've never paid for drums from a packer. I usually just fill my truck before I leave. Barkmans always has decent barrels but they won't let make take any extras.
