Cacheing ideas?

PVC pipe and surplus bouy tubes are great,but such things are getting hard to come by,and inner tubes leak on occasion.anyone have any ideas that you've actually tested?

Above ground caches with good drainage are better than trying to waterproof a cache to store items below ground. Military steel ammunition .50 cal. and larger cans with plastic bag liners and plastic 5-gallon plastic buckets work well, except that common garden variety plastic buckets are not entirely bear or rodentproof.

what is it you want to cache, Magus? food, weapons/gear, fuel

The Turner Diaries has some good cacheing info in it

I've found great luck with getting in touch with soft drink manufactures. They get the syrup shipped in really solid drums which they in return sell for super cheap.

Example of someone selling a bunch; rain and drinking wqter food grade barrels and tanks

Anyone ever tried a brewery? Budweisers just down the street from me.

Try a food processing facility for 55 gallon plastic drums. They have a plugged vent that can be used to vacuum pack your cache.
