that large traditionally get placed in tanks or buckets in wet collections and there are various ways of doing this (varying in price too).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Here at KU we use stainless steel tanks designed by Delta Designs or Steel Fixtures – see attached. I can provide pricing if necessary. Another cheaper option
is the polycarbonate storage pails from University Products - <a href="http://www.universityproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_list&c=165">
http://www.universityproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_list&c=165</a>. Unfortunately these do not have a very tight seal but have the benefit over normal 5 gallon buckets that they are see-through.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
