[Iowabrewcrew]

How many roughly?

[Jethro80]

I also have a few that I can part with

[PmDavis300]

i bought one from menards years ago

[Fatboy216864]

Check local dinning spots, thats where I got mine

[Northlander]

Super markets will at times part with a few or try the Dairy's. They dont give them away like they used to though.

The Menards in Coon Rapids has them. (Hiway 10 and Main St.)

When I worked at Dairy Queen in high school we just stacked them out back...

[BrianLucky13]

You could try gas stations too!!! They always have junk in the back room or cooler!!!

ya ive seen alot of gas stations that do this too

[smeese]

They sit out back of most Kwik Trips.....yes I asked for mine

[nytelyter]

Just a note. and i got this from a dairy guy. alot of the company owned crates are just that. they are company owned. some are even marked with words of protection on them, that haveing them can be a violation of the law. i willl telll ya tho he told me this cause he saw the three of them i had straped to my four wheeler. . so be sure to ask, or buy them and keep the reciept if they have a major dairy's logo onit. ... paul

jethro80 where do you live i only need 2 or 3 i would like to put on the front of the wheeler

[bturck]

office supply stores also carry them. they are designed to put hanging files into. don't remeber the cost. Bill

[coombia21]

bturck would i be able to put my 5 gal pail in it

[Bigsmitty]

I've had my two milk crates since 1972. I purchased them legally and yes I have always kept the reciept in my wallet just in case I get pulled over or questioned about them.....

[bturck]

coombia21: Yes, in fact I just went out to check it again, but a 5 gallon bucket does fit inside the crate. In fact in addition to putting my 20# cyl in one so it doesn't tip over I have two of them wire tied to the rear deck of my ATV. It works great to put a 5 gallon bucket in with rods, or a vexi or the minnow bucket. I think they are invaluable. Just my thoughts of course. Bill

Was at Menards today , they were $4.00 @ only had white

[coombia21]

firedew which menards were you at because i called the one in maple grove and found them but she didnt know what colors she had

[Northlander]

The ones I have seen at Menards arent as thick and durable as the good ones at the Dairy places or Grocery stores.

Talk to your local milkman!!!

Are there different sizes? I have one from menards but my 20 lb tank does not fit snug in it...there is like 1 - 2" of play....doesn't seem secure. I thought I remember seeing guys whose tanks sat tight in the crate. Maybe I need a heavy duty dairy style crate for this. Thanks.
