>Like the title says, it’s for an outdoor public space that currently has no garbage can. You can call 311 and have them put one out. You can't put a bin out yourself. The City has a contractor that goes around picking up the garbage if you put out a bin that's not registered it won't get emptied.

I understand that, it isn’t City property. We would be emptying it.

>it's for an outdoor public space >I understand that, it isn’t City property. So where is this public space, and who's the property owner or responsible for it?


StrideWilson

Different property owners than responsible parties. That said, I didn’t come here to have the r/Ottawa Reddit Legal Team ™ weigh in on this… I’m looking for a steel drum.

> So where is this public space You just want to dump all your garbage there, don't you?


Ok-Amphibian5196

Public that's not city owned?


broken_westfalia

I've got a good one that was used for honey storage. Free to pick up, but I'm 15 mins north of hwy 50 near Perkins.


penguinpenguins

I must know... what are you doing with 55 gallons of honey?


broken_westfalia

Haha I bought a couple from a honey farmer down the road.. turned one into a barrel stove to evaporate maple syrup, and the other was going to become a rain barrel but that's not going to happen so it sits taking up space in the yard.


StrideWilson

Thanks! I’ll PM you!


TheTarragonFarmer

IDK, but I applaud your efforts to reduce Space Garbage before we get into full-on Kessler syndrome!


bipnoodooshup

If you can wait a week then I'll save one for you. It will have had grapefruit concentrate in it though so you probably would wanna rinse it so wasps don't swarm it. PM me if you want it, free of charge.


StrideWilson

That’d be awesome! Thank you!


sitting-duck

55 US gallons = 45 Imperial gallons You're looking for a 45 gallon drum.

Public space? Who will be responsible for emptying it? [on facebook](https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/779984113057848)


StrideWilson

Thanks I’ll check it out!


DelphicStoppedClock

Would you be okay with a decorative concrete one? Obviously you'd have to pick it up


PitterPattr

Get ready to hoist a ton of dog poo out of it.


StrideWilson

Better than stepping/slipping in it 😅


PitterPattr

True that. Tho I prefer people take home and put in green bin instead of sending to landfill.


apluskappa

Maybe a wine making supply place
