New Product... Justrite... Drum Locks...
Justrite
Drum Locks are a cost effective solution to controlling storage
concerns of all types of liquids, semi-liquids, and powders that come in
standard drums. Made of corrosion resistant, non-sparking zinc die
cast, the units easily install around the drum bung flange with no risk
of cross threading. To secure the drum lock it is not necessary to
remove the original bung, therefore there is no contact with the drum
contents. This elimination of potential content contamination has
applications across many industries, including chemical and food
processing. It installs in seconds. Simply place both halves
around the bung lip, slide the lock bar through the halves and then
attach a padlock(9/32" or7.14mm dia. shackle, typical of a No. 3 Master
Lock) through the end hole of the bar. Sold as a pair, these drum locks fit the most popular style of steel and plastic 55 gallon (200L) drums. The steel set includes two units; one to fit over the 2" NPT plug, the other to fit over the 3/4" NPT plug. The plastic set includes two units which fit over both 2" plugs. Both sets are available without or with a No.3 Master Lock® padlock.

Making compost tea is not only "Green Motivated" but
truly beneficial to your plants and garden growth. A basic
compost tea is made up from adding compost to water and using
aeration to breed bacteria that is Growing Fuel for plants. By using
compost tea you will notice the speed of the growth
process and produce a bigger crop for harvest.

July 24 - Birmingham, MI
Maxi
Container had a great time at the Green Breeze Fair. We were selling
our signature Terra Cotta Rain Barrel Kits and DIY Compost Tumbler Kits.
We appreciate everyone who came out and showed support. Good times were
had by all of Maxi's employees despite off and on showers to start the
day. The weather cleared up and so did everyone's spirits. Thank you
Birmingham for making the Green Breeze Green Living Fair happen.

New & Improved Product Line... Rain Barrels...
We
have found there are hundreds of different style's of
rain barrel collection systems. All the systems are beneficial in "Going Green" by conserving water and saving your hard earned money. We decided to look for the "Best Packaged Deal". After
many tests and design trials we came up with an easy to use rain
barrel kit. One of our kits new features is the Terra Cotta
color. No more bright colored eye sores for your back yard,
just a warm inviting sensation. Our new rain barrel has an
easy on-and-off screw top cover. These new covers
allow for no hassle cleaning. Another great new feature is
the plastic mesh screen secured to the top of the
barrel pictured below.
The
plastic mesh screen acts like a strainer to catch large debris like
leaves that comes from roofs and gutters. This simple yet advanced rain
barrel design is not only easy to use, but aggressively
priced. Our kit includes a brass spigot (already installed for
you), a pre-cut hole, screen, screws, washers, overflow valve,
flexible downspout adapter and instructions. Some assembly
required. Buy one of our new rain barrel kits today for only $60.

New & Improved Product... The DIY Composter Kit...
Keeping With the "Going Green" theme,
we decided to make our compost tumbler more effective and
efficient.
One of the new design features is the improved aeration system. The
new compost tumbler highlights advances that help compost during the
natural
aeration process. The tumbler has a rake system, (customizable) extra
holes for
ventilation, and black color for the decomposition process as pictured
below.
The
black color allows the sun to heat the compost and break it down
into rich organic soil. Another big feature is the steady
frame. Our new wooden legs allow for the safe support of the
compost tumbler during tumbling.
This Compost Tumbler is low-impact on your back compared to a traditional compost pile. The
screw top cover offers easy access for loading your compost.
The new DIY Compost Tumbler Kit includes everything you need to get
started. All materials come pre-cut and drilled ready for set-up. Kit
