FDA approved containers

[Kizmar]

Other then Tractor Supply (they didn't have what I'm looking for), where else are people getting FDA approved water containers?

I'm specifically looking for a 35-55 gallon drum to mix salt water in. One of the blue or white ones? It needs to be open top with a cover.

I'm hoping there's a local store chain I haven't thought about, but I'll order one online if I have to.

Side note: If Tractor Supply usually has what I'm describing I might need to go to a larger store. The closest one to me is pretty small.

I don't think it really matters if it's food-grade or not for mixing water. I have always used the Brute trash cans from Home Depot or Lowe's, and those come with lids. If you are specifically looking for drums, then sorry, I don't know where to get those.

Brute trash cans in grey, yellow or white are certified NSF #2.
NSF/ANSI Standard 2: Food Service Equipment
Equipment commonly known as 'fabricated food equipment': kitchen, bakery, pantry and cafeteria units, and other food handling and processing equipment including tables and components, counters, shelves, sinks, hoods, etc.

Perfect, thanks!

What Larry said, or the farming community. I got a 55 gallon blue drum with lid that was originally used for tomatoes. 20 bucks.
