Barrels for hauling water

[titan100]

I found a guy in Norco on craigslist that sells barrels water tight from 5 gal to 55 gal for $20 for any size. Any recirculating sluice rs or if you need water for panning out in the dessert they are perfect. I got 2 of the 20 gals and hauled out to Goler area no leaking. Steve 951 958 9210 just thought I would pass along for everyone.

Hotel Laundry departments will also give them to ya for free. AzViper gets tons of them that way and he turned me on to eleven of them. I can haul in 165 gallons of water which will keep two of us sluicing for a little over a week running 3 sluices. If it was just me, that amount of water would last me for more than 2 weeks and that's doing complete water changes every third day or so.

I can get 15 gallon barrels and an occasional 55 gallon, if anyone near charlotte needs some.

craigslist, search '55 gal drums' or barrels (here you have to get creative or search returns barrel cactus)

Some are used for frosting and what not, but watch for oils (including food oils if 'food safe')
