As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I don't know if you sheltered virginal of knowledge children know of these things, as most people just think of 55 gallon plastic barrels, but there is something else out there............JYG told me 20 bucks and ended up 25, as I got the big ass ones , like the over 300 gallon ones.
Mine came from a milk processing center, and have industrial hydrogen peroxide in them. No I'm not making any bombs with the leavings, as I have other plans for these in storage.
People wash out and use these all the time. Someitme for honey, sometimes for water, sometime for who knows what. Mine will be used for grain storage. I really would like to get a couple more which I probably will for rainwater off the roof as these are big storage units, that in most cases are built for pallet forks so you can move them around as they weigh allot.
I have other ideas for the metal frame, but will not disclose that at this juncture as a girl has to keep her secrets.
Yes some people send them back to the shipping container company, but lots of people just junk them and that is where the storage comes into play. As long as my grain is dry, there is absolutely not any a damned rat or rodent coon is going to eat their way through this plastic tote. They really are nice things in having a big opening on top and a spigot on the bottom. I will worry about getting the grain out after the fact, a it is not like I would need more than a gallon of wheat seeds to grind at a time.
I can't see hydrogen peroxide anything that is that toxic, so that is what is the idea which none of your survival experts ever think about. As long as you did not get killed in this thing falling on you. something like this in warm weather, provided it was higher than your head, and you were not under it, and had a hose, would make a really nice summer shower for when the power goes off.
Put some Chlorox in and that would probably keep the rain water from going green. Just suggestions as I don't have the money for all the totes I want, but no one ever discusses these wonders as part of storage.
Am really looking forward for what I plan to do with the metal frame.
Anyway that is the information that most of you do not pay for.
Nuff Said.
