Any suggestions to manufacturers who would be willing to do this and take credit card payment ?

Thanks,

Status: offline 		Most manufacturers will sell by the drum to clubs. Our last order for three drums went to Morgan Fuels (1-800-633-7556) and included a barrel of 15%. (They take credit cards.) Have ordered from Red Max in the past. Don't know if they will sell to individuals, or just to clubs. Best bet would be to call a few manufacturers and ask.

Status: offline 		a few things to consider
1) most only will ship a drum to a business address, not home. Mach7 (Morgan) is that way.
2) you have to be able to move a fully loaded 50gal drum from where the truck drops it off to where you are going to store it. got a forklift?
3) you have to pump out 50 gal's into 1 gal containers. otherwise, if you use it straight from the drum, the fuel will absorb alot of moisture as you get low. also alot of wear on your fuel pump unless you get an industrial one.
4) what to do with the drum after it's used up
