Formats we quote
When drums make sense
Drums fit shops, farms and fleets with a few trucks, or a yard that wants a backup supply. Once you go through more than a drum or two a month, a tote usually costs less per gallon and takes fewer deliveries. Compare formats in tote vs drum vs bulk.
Handling
Store drums sealed, upright and out of the sun. Use a dedicated DEF pump and never one that has touched fuel, oil or coolant. Small amounts of contamination can ruin DEF.
