Thanks Charlie,
Capitolcontainer sells used plastic 55 gallon barrels for $15. I have
lived in Albany for 39 years and I never knew about them.

I would like to make a rain barrel. I have no idea where to get a used

You appear to be in the Albany area....if so, how about these.

Try any recycler, as many of the drums end up with them.
