I am looking for somewhere to get hold of some palletainers aka water deposits. These are a 1000litre plastic tank inside a metal cage, all  on a pallet. They measure about 1m cube.

I have a number of them now in which I collect rainwater (when we have some) but one or two have split round the middle and some of the bottom valves have broken. The valves I can replace but I can't mend the tank.

The place at Hondon where they originally came from has gone. So all reasonable suggestions welcome.

I don't mind travelling a bit to collect.

Thanks Jim 

I was not thinking of buying new as it's not worth it just to collect rainwater. The ones I got previously were from a carpet factory (Crevillente maybe??) and had contained adhesive which surprisingly I could get out with a pressure washer. So something like that would be great.

If you are on Facebook, look on Marketplace. I often see them around this way (probably a bit far for your purposes).

Thanks Jim. A good lead. I had forgotten Milanuncios.

Looks like I can get some delivered from Biar which is only about 10km away. Very handy.
