Thanks for the heads up -- do the 1 gallon sort hold up better?

(the five gallon one listed above is easy to lift, the 15 gallon one, not so easy...)

The five gallons mentioned here have a habit of cracking, even though not frozen.

That's the first I've ever heard of Scepter cans cracking. If you can drive a vehicle over them, I can't see how just sitting full of water would cause any issues....?

I just did some web surfing trying to find any mention of Scepter cans cracking and if you had one crack, I'd love to hear the how/where/why as nobody else seems to have encountered the problem.

Second this. Mine were only about 3 months old. Set something on top if them and kinked, leaked all over everything! Pissed.

Looks there is some other discussion going on about long green storage.

Just bumping this thread to comment on this...

I have had about 4 jugs leak so far, however there are many more intact after almost two years. I think that rotating these out after 12 to 18 months or so is a great idea (bring them to the range, etc).
