Dimensions are approximate (as metal measuring tape is not very flexible) circumference 120cm, height 65cm & diameter 38cm. Those large units should allow you move the shelf positions around. The barrels are very heavy duty & ugly as hell so you might want to consider some where else out sight :) They should be stackable & while I have not tried it possibly even could be stored outside. I know a cousin of mine stores calf nuts in them outside with a click tight lid fastener. Failing that find a corner of a spare room with a dedicated set of shelving units. Not sure if you could paint them some less objectionable colour like black or white.

I do want the larger buckets for storage of equipment and odds and ends mostly,however if they could also be used for brewing would be awful handy  even if not essential. Basically i need to change out my fvs and was kinda hoping to find something that would both store and ferment. I know i know always asking for the very thing that cant be got. :P
