Just quick one for people using meth regular ,

How do you safely store the 210lt barrels, inside or outside ? Also do you use a pallet truck to move it around when it's delivered

Never ordered that amount and looks the only way to save money as small amounts are now nearly 2quid a litre

Cheapest I have seen on jennychem is 210lt for 259 works out around 80p per litre which isn't bad bit have to order 210lt and haven't got a way to moving it

I really wanted to do this and originally thought to keep it in my garage but after some research and more thought i decided not to do it....... Can you imagine what the insurance claim form would look like.
Im still thinking about storage solution for outside.

If you ask jennychem they will send you eight 25ltr tubs for the price of the barrel and the smaller ones are much easier to store.
