Hey,
I have been tote hunting for a while and finally found
some worthy candidates.
1200 Litres (around 300 gallons)
2 inch cam-lock with a threaded cap.
(Not the dumb metric one that is hard to source parts for.)
Nice tube aluminum cage and base, a bit smaller footprint then some
totes I have seen.
I had 10 and now have 6 left.
$110.oo EDITED FOR TAX( I am in Nanaimo.)

Do you know what fluid was in these totes?
Do the valve and handle work well?
Cheers,

Also these totes can be stacked 3 high,
would want it to be on nice flat concrete
if I was going that high.
They had pure petroleum lubricants in them.
The valves are all good.
Having said that, on the WVO/Bio-diesel
forums I have been reading, people seem
to like puting on another Gate or ball valve at
some point either to be super safe (two inline valves)
or to change it out.(one more Skookum valve)
I think I am going to build a platform on top of one of mine,
(with side pillars) and do a cold upflow thing from a barrel
down and up through the bottom cam-lock valve.
Delicat seems to like the cold upflow thing,
it can't hurt and it will save me a bit of space in my shop.
The upflow concept is pretty solid and might speed settling a bit.
Got a few totes left,
if there is more intrest I will see if I can procure more.
Happy to hook up people with totes ,
makes my semi-relentless
Tote-quest worthwhile.
Right on!

Those are nice totes, I tempted to get another one, but two should be sufficient for personal use, shouldn't it? Although stacking them 2 high would mean I could have 4 with the same foot print......
OK, I shouldn't really ever need to store 4000L of filtered oil. I do have a biodiesel friend that was interested in picking up a several more totes, so if you are looking to unload or want to hook him up I'll send you his contact info.

Hey,
Anyone who wants the bigger Totes,pm me.
They are 1500 litres I think,pretty damn sure they won't fit in a Delica though.
Same price (edited for tax)
I will answer PMz when I get a chance and arrange pick up times and will post the measurments.
Should be able to get enough for everybody.
Right on!

I seems like it would fit on it's back or side. but getting it in through the door might be the issue.
Damn I want 2 of those, need to scrounge up some cash :)

Hey,
Bumperooski to old post.
I have three 1200 liter totes left
and one 1000l (fits in a l300 highroof with the back seat taken out)
I dare not fill another with WVO for fear of
of psychotic violent behavior
and general retributive malaise that
is never far from the surface of my lovely,
intelligent and pregnant nesting spousal
counterpart.
Right ON!
I do still think Delica is a good girls name...hehehe
kidding..mostly

If you stack 2 of them, are you able to get to the top fill hole for the bottom? I have about 4000L of wvo now, and 3 of the thin Hydrolic oil, and I would LOVE to get all these 5 gallon buckets out of here and these cardboard cubies..... let me know

Hey,
Was cool to meet your buddy.
That is a BF Truck he has eh!
Probably could have carried both Totes
full of oil and not broke a sweat or an axle.
Your 2400 l of liquid storage joy is my
24 (or so) square feet of backyard-spousal
-land-use-negotiation bargaining leverage!
I will try out that hydraulic oil too.
Thanks and
Right ON!
