We have about 25 275-gallon totes and about 15-20 55-gallon drums that previously held food grade emulsified vegetable oil that are available free to good home. They still have a bit of residue in them, but it isn't terribly hard to rinse out. The catch is that you will need to pick them up at former Kelly AFB in San Antonio between now and this Thursday. If you are still interested, let me know either via PM or using my user name at swbell dot net and I will give you contact info for the site manager.

They hold water perfectly. The totes hold 275 gallons and you can see in the pictures they have a decent size opening in the top. The drums are 55 gallon poly drums, but only have two small bung openings in the top, so you would have to cut them open if you needed more access.

I work for the company that grows the bugs everybody uses and that has changed names about every 2-3 years lately. We are done at Kelly...didn't win the bid for the next contract. Hence the need to get rid of the empty totes by the end of the govt fiscal year.

Just FYI, I think most of the totes are spoken for at this point. I didn't ask everybody how many they wanted because initially I hadn't had many requests. So I don't want to overcommit to anybody. I should have a better idea by the end of the day tomorrow how many will be left.

If anyone wants a similar deal close to Houston I've got 265 gal totes and 30 gal drums that had roundup in them. I think I'm down to 5 totes and 20 or so drums, you can pick them up for free at the Wharton Airport on Hwy 59.

10-4. I think I know the one.

Sounds like it may not be an issue for you, but I've had to recycle a mass number of those recently. I can help you with an option if you ever have the need.

Just looking for one and local in SA. If you are close to running out, I'd like to be on the stand by list.

I believe all the totes are spoken for. I just sent emails and PMs with contact info to the folks who had already contacted me and were waiting to hear back about whether we had any left. So check your emails or PMs.

Ok, disregard what I said. Looks like we still have 11 left, and to my knowledge, there is only 1 person left who is coming tomorrow to get 1 or 2. So if anybody still wants them, PM me or email at my user name followed by swbell dot net. First come first serve at this point.

Does that come with a free lawsuit of the roundup makers?
