Storing RO/DI in Ace Hardware garbage bin? Safe?

[125gallonreefer]

I bought an RO DI unit, went to my local Ace Hardware store and bought a 34 gallon Ace brand with Rubbermaid logo on the side. Not the Rubbermaid brute one. It was cheaper than the brute.

Are these safe to use? Or does it have to be the brute one?

i don’t want any unknown chemicals leaching in the water

This, and the number with it. Then you can google up the number

Lol, I know that, there’s like 3 or 4 of them on the the bottom. What do they mean

Don’t remember off hand, but google does

Most Rubbermaid cans are recycle 2 (High Density Polyethylene, HDPE), or recycle 4 (low density polyethylene, LDPE), both of which are safe to use.

I don’t think this particular one has the food safe label on it. Still good?
