Default Where is the best place to get a 20-30 gal Rubbermaid food safe container?

Hi. I live in Nanaimo and I hear I should be making/storing my water in food safe plastic bins..... I currently have been mixing my salt water in a Rubbermaid indoor/outdoor storage bin I got from Walmart... It says it's...LDPE anyone know of this is ok? Or if I should find something more food safe? If so where is the best place to get one?

I just use a regular rubbermaid bin (from walmart) for allot of stuff. If your really worried you could check out industrial plastics and paints, they sell allot of food safe bins, but they are pretty expensive.

I got a 15-20 gallon wine making container from a wine making supply place. it looks just like a Rubbermaid trash can, except its white. Been using it for years!
