RECLAIM - RETHINK - RESOURCE

Oak barrels are traditionally used to age wine or distilled spirits, carry grain & feed, transport foolish souls over huge waterfalls and provide rudimentary nudity-abatement while in the poor house. But getting your hands on one doesn't require a Niagara-sized leap, nor does it require going broke.

Oak staves and lids (some with branding) from various distilleries, including Heaven Hill, Four Roses, Buffalo Trace, and Jack Daniels and local favorite High West used to age whiskey and bourbon. Drained of their potent potables, these oak barrels make excellent landscaping pots, could complement your rustic-themed decor, or provide source wood for the perfect craft project. But, please, let the professionals ride the waterfalls, and, for the love of Pete, just wear regular clothes!

Oak staves and lids (some have distillery branding on at least one lid, though most are blank)

Riveted steel bands (hoops)

Many are dried and are unlikely to hold liquid, however, we sometimes have barrels which are still capable of liquid storage; please ask

FAQS

DO THE BARRELS HAVE ANY BRANDING OR LOGOS ON THEM?

Some barrels have a logo painted or stamped on one lid, although most are blank. Most will also have some staining from the emptying process; amount of staining and hue of coloring varies. You may choose the barrels you prefer, however, please note that pricing varies, as above, based on condition.

CAN THE BARRELS BE CUT IN HALF?

Yes! We offer both a planter cut (cut around their widest point), and a cradle cut (cut from top to bottom). Advanced notice is required; a minimum of 4 hours for planter cuts, and at least 24-hours notice for cradle cuts, please. Cutting fees: $20 for planter style, or $40 for lengthwise cradle cuts. Note: Only half-cuts available; no other cutting services available.

WHAT OTHER SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?

Power washing: $40. Generally removes surface dirt, creating a more vibrant surface, but rarely removes significant staining. Excellent preparatory step prior to water repellant application.

Lid removal: $15 per lid. Several bands are temporarily removed, a lid is pulled from its groove, then the bands are replaced. If you do not wish to keep the lid, we can provide this service for $5. We recommend having the bands affixed after this service.

Affix bands (3 screws per hoop): $20. Locating brads are removed, hoops are tapped down with specialized cooperage tools, essentially tightening the barrel, then self-tapping screws are affixed to hold the hoops in place.

Exterior water repellent: $40. A coating of Thompson's Water Seal will be applied over the entire outer surface of the barrel, including the hoops. This brings out the natural beauty of the wood, and amplifies the contrasting colors and patterns of the grain. Please note that this does not truly "seal" the barrel to provide watertightness; it's simply an external protectant, and likely will need to be reapplied as often as once a year.

WHAT CAN BARRELS BE REPURPOSED AS?

They have dozens of uses; your creativity is the only limit! Here are some suggestions: planters or urban vegetable gardens, unique furniture (table, chairs, wine bottle holders, etc.), rainwater collection, bar top, liquor cabinet, use the slats to make home accessories, BBQ smoking wood/charcoal briquettes, cut lengthwise and make into a baby cradle, decorations for your vintage themed wedding, cut a hole in the top and turn into a dog kennel, wood flooring, or whatever your creativity can dream up.

DO YOU RENT YOUR BARRELS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS?

We no longer have barrels available for rent.

DO YOU SELL INDIVIDUAL BARREL PARTS?

Yes! Staves are $1 per pound, bands are $2 each, blank lids are $25 each, uniquely printed lids are $30 each, and High West branded lids are $40 each.
