Where does one buy mineral oil?

1) Drugstores sell USP mineral oil in very small quantities (pints)
2) Feed stores (catering to horses and cows, etc.) sell USP mineral oil in gallons (as a laxative).
3) Your friendly local neighborhood oil jobber sells electrical insulating oil in 5 gallon pails (and drums or tank truck lots too).

Just browsing through a list from a search, what about Hollingsworth Oil Co, Inc, 420 W. McNab Rd, which is listed as an oil/fuel wholesaler.

Doing a yellowpages search, I get:
Anchor Petroleum, Atlantic Coastal Fuels, Petroleum Industries, Land and Sea Petroleum. etc.

Off the Shell USA site:

Port Consolidated Oil Co.
3141 SE 14th Avenue
Fort Lauderdale , FL 33335
Phone: 305-687-1266
Fax: 305-685-8729

is a shell distributor. You can call them up and ask for Diala AX.

Exxon's distributor is Young Oil, Co, 2451 NE 4th Avenue
Pompano Beach, FL 33064, 954-942-3033

Univolt N61B is one kind of transformer oil from Exxon.



Walmart doesn't have it, they said they keep ordering it but never get it. It could also be the city it's in, as other Walmarts sell ammo and this one doesn't. Not that the two are related in any way... 

..just an example of different stock at different Walmarts.
