Looking for a source in the Seattle area for large galvanized tubs or short large diameter culvert sections for raised beds. This year convinced me that very soon I wont want to be down on the ground harvesting tomatoes and such. It was a great year for tomatoes and tomatillos in the Pacific Northwest!

TSC or farmer's co-op should help you
Yes, our Rural King has a good selection of various sizes of galvanized livestock tubs.

ah thanks but GA an TN aren't exactly close to Seattle.
Do you have a Lowe's or Home Depot in your area? They may carry what you are looking for as well.
I easily found a TSC store near Seattle. I guess I could look up a Co-op too but didn't want to spend a few more minutes on it. Also try Amazon - they sell millions of things.
Here is the information on the TSC near Seattle. (28 miles)
PUYALLUP - 1886
621 RIVER RD
PUYALLUP,WA 98371-4152
253-845-0397
I think TSC also ships. Go to their website and search for trough - you will see galvanized, plastic, etc. (3 pages worth)
Exactly.
My Home Depot has a Black Plastic tub in the shape and size of a 1/2 Whiskey Barrell for $30.00.
I have been able to bloom Peonies in it for the last 3 years. Of course I am in NJ, but the Home Depot usually has the same merchandise in most of its stores. Check it out
I make raised beds using concrete paving stones (stood on end) as walls.
Made small, those approximate a container.
I think leftcoaster has left the building...
