Default Eeek!! What Happened to My Pond? ("The Big Dig" Continued...)

Plastic food grade 55 gallon drums? Free for the asking at some food
processing plants.

I've really got to find a deep plastic bin for the pump basin however.
I'll be putting both Oase pumps in it, two 4" gravity-fed pipes from
the drains and 2" outflows from the pumps. I also wanted to add some
kind of a screen basket below the pumps to catch the leaves sucked in
from the drain.

Anyone have any ideas on where I could find a plastic basin (3'x3'x3'
or so) for this purpose? Garbage cans are okay, but they all have
wheels and that just seems so stupid to me to bury wheels in the
ground.
