Anyone have a good source for drums with removable lid and no plastic lining in it?

Sunwest Containers is where I have bought 3 drums.  I think it was $58 for a new unlined 55 gallon drum with a bung hole.  Be sure to get the bung lid.

Here's the info:

Yup, i've purchased 2 drums thru their Tucson office. SW container is the way to go. I've purchased one bung lid and one non-bung lid. Depending on your ventialtion plan, either may work, but they are the best and cheapest you'll find. The paint also seems to stay on, unless to get a roaring fire.  I don't do real hot burns, so as long as i'm just smoking, they look just fine!

Keep us updated on your UDS build, we love to see'em here!

Be kind, polite and courteous to everyone you meet, and ALWAYS have a plan to kill them.

I've pruchased 4 new drums from them as well.  Averages about $50.00 drum with non-bung lid.

Personally, I don't know why anyone would buy a used drum and go through all the prep, etc. when a new drum is so cheap.  New is the way to go IMO.

I agree.  Hmmmm.....burn out who knows what, take a wire brush to anything that didn't burn out, and then still have an ugly drum with horrible paint and possibly some rust and dings all to save $25 - $30 is crazy.
