Why Choose Steel Drums Over Other Types of Containers?

Steel drums are versatile containers catering to a diverse set of storage and transportation needs, available in a variety of specifications. They hold the capability to store and transport a wide range of products, including hazardous materials, food products, and chemicals, showcasing adaptability to different industry requirements and proving to be a go-to solution for varied storage needs.

Better yet, our reconditioned steel drums are environmentally friendly and can help reduce environmental impact. This is because steel drums can be used indefinitely, going through the reconditioning process countless times and still seeming like new.

Our Drums Are Built For Panama City Weather

Our new & reconditioned steel drums are built to handle Panama City’s unique conditions, including high humidity and heavy seasonal rainfall.

  • Humidity Protection. Uncoated steel drums exteriors can rust rapidly in North Florida’s high humidity and intense rains. Our drums’ protective coatings keep them safe and secure outdoors.
  • Waterproof Sealing. Standing water in unsealed drums accelerates mosquito breeding. Our drums prevent this with tight bung seals.
  • Local Compliance. Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and EPA regulations mandate that drums storing oils, hydraulic fluids, or solvents have certified secondary containment pallets to prevent soil and groundwater contamination.
