40 Gallon Plastic Tub

This 40-gallon tub is the middle child of our plastic tub lineup, and honestly it might be the most useful size on the place. Big enough for watering a few animals or mixing a good batch of feed, small enough that it doesn’t take over the barn aisle.

The heavy-duty plastic takes real abuse — dropped tools, frozen mornings, animals standing in it when they shouldn’t — and keeps going. There’s no coating to chip and nothing to rust, so it lives outside just fine. Handy around the garden and orchard too, whenever you need to move a load of anything.

Great for: water, feed mixing, and hauling around barn and garden.
