just go to Home Depot and get a 35 gal brute trash can. I use two of them and they work great. You can even get the wheels for them if you want to be able to roll them around.

I am using a trash can now... wanted to get something that was "sturdier" so i could figure a way to put it up above the ground ie. strapping it to the backside of our steps ... that way my son doesnt decide that the bucket of water needs laundry detergent or anything else in it

You can go to www.imscompany.com. They should have what you need. Just look under the drum catagory and you can get lids with ports already in them if you want. They are also located in Ohio (Newbury) so pick up is an option since shipping on a drum would be costly.

I have several of the see through white colored 15g drums with the plugs and a handle on top. I could sell them for $15 each if anyone wants something water tight, heavy duty and portable. They are over 100lbs when full so they are not easily moved around but you can do it if the need arises.

Here's a picture:

I have 3 of these right now and I'm pretty sure I could get up to 10 more soon.

I have 55 gallon plastic drums if you need any, they were used for strawberry food flavor for a jelly company, so they never had any chemicals in them.
