You are lucky, We haven't had a burn barrel since the early 60's. That was my favorite thing to do, burn the trash. Stan

Nice picture. I use a water cooled burning barrel....My outdoor wood boiler. I makes a great burner with the forced draft.

Burn barrels are against the law in WV. All trash has to be disposed of in an approved landfill. You can pay a hefty fine for burning trash if caught. The only thing that can be legally burnt is brush. If it didn't grow on the property it is illegal to burn it, even if it is wood from a demolition.

Sure wish the neighbor didn't still use his burn barrel- he always seem to wait until the rare nice, calm cool evening to light it off, full of plastic and fish guts, or whatever he can to make it stink the whole neighborhood up. Even though he's a quarter mile away, the stench always drifts right in the open window over my wife's pillow, which, of course, is my fault.

I don't think there's anyplace you can use a burn barrel legally, certainly not in MN!

Legal in lots of places, including where I live. That is a gorgeous photo, by the way.
I wouldn't live in a locality where the gooberment thought they could dictate what I do on my property to that extent. Or maybe I and a few dozen others would attack them with pitchforks and torches and school them on the meaning of liberty.

If you are anywhere near Wichita, a permit to burn is required and household trash is NOT permit to be burnt within city limits.
And in Sedgwick County, burning of any heavy smoke-producing material is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to: rubber tires, plastics, roofing, tar paper, old furniture, garbage, cloth or any petroleum base product.
Both city and county require a burn permit to burn anything.

I cut both ends out set it on a old tractor rim put a metal grade between the barrel and rim it takes on all comers last for years...
My current burn barrel looks like a couple of big hammermill screens welded into a cylinder about 40 inches tall and 30 inch diameter. Full of holes about 5/8 dia. About 1/4" material. I got it from a widow whose place I was helping clean up. A number of them in town. Don't know where they originated. I wish mine was round again. It had been knocked over and brush pile had been on it and it got hot and sagged. Something to fix someday. I have built several burning barrels out of 275 gallon obround fuel barrels. 2 out of 500 gallon round fuel barrels on end. (My favorite). I cut a hole in the side and make a door and hinges and a latch. Also cut a hole in the top and fastened a piece of 10 inch tubing on top with a grate. None last long enough. I built a fresh air blower to feed the fire with a small squirrel cage and a pipe to keep the blower far enough away from the heat. That really helps get a complete burn.
I tried plastic barrels a couple times. I only got to use them one time though. Some scoundrel would steal them the first night I used them. Lol!!!

Yea , but that is Wichita. The rest of the state has some common sense
