Milk Crates...where to get them?

[mbrown2]

Other than stealing them from the store, where can you get the stronger "real" Milk Crates?
...Just realized I did not have any and I need a couple..

There is a central collection point in most large cities, that pick up various brands of crates, kinda like the guys that go around picking up shopping carts. They then sell them back to the regestered,(yes they are regestered) owners. If they have any that belonged to a company that bellied up, (there are several old daries that went out of business) they'll sell them to you, with a legit receipt..Possession of "stolen" milk crates can be a stout fine, although it's been years since I heard of anyone actually prosecuted. ..............Moneypitt

Dairys don't have milk crates. You need to go to the vender. Like Crystal or some other processor. Dairys pump the milk into huge tanks that are instantly cooled. Later that day a tanker truck with come and pump it out.
