Try Barrelhead in Troy.  
I know they sell barrels because Ive seen their truck when they pick up the plastic barrels at my work. Im just not sure if they sell metal ones.

We have very durable hard/thick empty plastic barrels at my work with locking lids. They ship & store the chemicals we use at work, when we are done we clean them out and we have probably 100 or so empty ones with locking tops. If you’re interested I could probably ask my boss and see what he wants for a few.

We get those too and we leave them out by the dumpster and usually the guy from Barrelhead takes them. You need a tool to unscrew the caps.

Nope different barrels, 100% guarantee they are different. No tool needed.

well these have a little hole with a screw on cap. Really you can get the caps off with two screwdrivers but the tool just works better.

The barrels Joey is referring to are made of PVC and have tops that are held on with a big clamp (V-band style, wicked JDM).

^^ Yesss, PVC is what I was looking for, not plastic.

OP, lemme know if they’re something you’d be interested in, we have a ton of them.

If you are using them for storage of chemicals or solvents or whatever, they are far superior to steel. No worries about rust and corrosion. If you need them for something else, good luck haha.
