I am looking for two containers - a 50-55 gallon container (approx 18" by 47" or so), and a 25 gallon version (18" and about 30" high). I found some on Plastic-Mart, and also Tank-depot, but the shipping is more than the tanks. I have a Tractor Supply near me but their vertical tank is just too big. Is there a low shipping option out there for these standard white tanks?
 
blains farm and fleet - just got a 35 gallon norwesco tank for $86 delivered
 
I have two of the 40 gallon containers. Shipping was pretty cheap, I did notice at one point shipping on the 65 & 75 gallon containers were cheaper than the shipping on the 55 gallon.

Ok maybe this is too good to be true but it looks like there is no S&H over $99. If that is the case you just saved me over $200 which is AWEOME! Thank you @pelphrey. :)
 
I just ordered the rectangular 55 gallon tank, and the circular 25 gallon tank. I'll be setting up a sweet mixing station once these arrive. Couldn't be more excited to have found Rural King! Thanks again all for your help. It's amazing how quickly people respond to these threads.

I didn't know if they still honored the free shipping on these items, it seems at one point they stopped doing that due to size. I made the mistake of ordering my 40 gallon container separately which forced me to pay I think $12 in shipping. Which was still FAR cheaper than anywhere else I looked. Glad you were able to save some money, now you can buy a nice pump for the mixing station with the savings!

As mentioned above the lead time is out there, I don't think it took them 4-6 weeks to get my order to me.
