Closed Head Reconditioned Drums - Reliable, Cost-Smart Containers for Liquids & Hazardous Use
Closed head reconditioned drums combine affordability, compliance, and sustainability—offering safe, UN-rated performance at a fraction of the cost of new drums. Each drum is collected, cleaned, repaired, leak-tested, and certified by professional reconditioners for dependable reuse.
Available in both steel and plastic (HDPE) construction:
-
Steel Reconditioned Drums – Ideal for industrial chemicals, oils, solvents, and hazardous materials requiring durable containment.
