I called them, and that is their new address. It is near Hialeah. They do not sell blue barrels, but they tell me that they are available for $20-$25 in the Opa-Locka Hialeah Flea market, 55 gallon size. They also told me that it costs $150 to ship a full barrel from Miami to Sto Domingo, and a 24x24x24 inch box costs $125, box included.

They have door to door service, as far W as Bani.

Those are rip-off prices. Call Embarque Bella Vista, I think they're in Miami. From NJ/NY/PA etc, the boxes cost $75 each, 3 for $200. Shipping a blue tanque is $115, plus the cost of the tanque.

Always cheaper from Florida

Embarque Bella Vista may be a better deal, but they do not ship from Miami, only NY/NJ/PA. I called them and that is what they told me.

That's weird, because our guy told us we could ship out of Florida cheaper. Sometimes when you buy appliances there is free shipping anywhere in the US - he told us to drop ship to their Florida office.

And they don't ship out of NY/NJ/PA - they ship out of NY only, and out of Providence, RI in New England. The do pick up all around NJ, and if it's a large amount they will go into Philadelphia too.

Too bad about people needing/wanting those barrels. I was in NYC and drove by a construction site in Jersey where there must have been thousands of those barrels (No idea what was originally in them) but had a huge sign saying "Take me free" I guess shipping empty far outweighs the savings

I asked if they had an office in Miami, and he said "No, solamente Nueva York".
