I am sure that someone from your area will post some info on where to get it. 1000 gallons is a lot, maybe they were not taking you serious?
Did you tell them you had a business?
Give them a card?
Let them know how much you plan on buying?
Show them your business registration and/or license?
Show them your business insurance?
This stuff is becoming more and more common before suppliers will sell you chemicals because of Homeland Security. They are just protecting themselves, you can't blame them for that with all the weirdo's out there.

Make sure that you request the MSDS sheet and carry it with you and the sodium hypochlorite at all times. You never know where DOT may be lurking!

That is a good point Lori.
When you have chemicals with you in the truck/van/trailer you have to have the MSDS with you within arm's reach in a folder/spiral/notebook, whatever you want but needs to have every chemical that you have in/on that vehicle and/or trailer.
If you do not have them and D.O.T. pulls you over, you are looking at fines and that will cause more inspection and possibly more fines of things that you are not aware of but are Federal D.O.T. Regulations for the Roads and Highways, nobody is exempt.
There are a lot of places that seem to not be enforcing the D.O.T. regulations but they are being enforced, you just do not see it too much but they are cracking down more and more.
The State Troopers usually do not write many tickets in the city because it is the city police that usually do that but now with more cooperation between city/state/government that is starting to change.
I have never seen a State Trooper give a ticket inside the city before but I have seen 5 in the last month so maybe they are expanding their coverage. Typically they stay on the highways but since they also cover roads, they can give tickets inside the city also if they want.
I would not want to be caught with over 90 gallons of bleach on my truck or trailer without having the proper placards, D.O.T. registered vehicle, CDL with Hazmat endorsement, D.O.T. approved Container, etc..............................., that fine would suck!
There are a lot of other things that you have to know about but that has been talked about a lot in other threads, search for DOT, regulations, hauling chemicals, etc.... here in the bbs and you will find a lot of great threads.

I cannot remember the names any longer but there is a place of Sam Ritten Blvd that does 55 gal drums for a reasonable price. Begins with an "E" I believe...Energen??? Also, there was one off Atlanta Rd near Montague that was able to do it by the 5 gallon drum. Not sure if either do it any longer.
.. Miami/Ft Lauderdale. Any idea?

These guys do a great job for me. Call Stan first, 706.564.1000, tell him Aaron from Hilton Head gave you the #. He started the company, sold it, but now is VP/Sales. He will get some company info from you and make it easier for you, rather than just showing up the first time. The company typically sells in high-volume, but Stan got me set up in their system where I will call what I need -- I rarely buy more than 55 at a time. I get mostly 12.5 there, at a great price.

Very hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation. Hazardous in
case of skin contact (corrosive), of eye contact (corrosive). The amount of tissue damage depends on length of
contact. Eye contact can result in corneal damage or blindness. Skin contact can produce inflammation and
blistering. Inhalation of dust will produce irritation to gastro-intestinal or respiratory tract, characterized by burning,
sneezing and coughing. Severe over-exposure can produce lung damage, choking, unconsciousness or death.
Prolonged exposure may result in skin burns and ulcerations. Over-exposure by inhalation may cause respiratory
irritation. Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and itching. Skin inflammation is
characterized by itching, scaling, reddening, or, occasionally, blistering
Are you kidding me !!

That's not too bad. Some guys pay less than that, but in my neck of the woods it's about the same. When you get enough business you'll get a price break for ordering more material. I get a break when I order 2-4 barrels and then another from 5 up.
