Default Looking for water storage tanks in Vancouver 10-20 gallon

I'm looking for 2 square or rectangular cube water jugs to use for water changes that I can purchase in the Vancouver area (or even elsewhere in Canada). JUGS NOT FISH TANKS
Same idea as these, with a screw on lid
http://www.plastic-mart.com/product/...tank-sp0020-om


Industrial plastics in Langley and Coquitlam have something similar under the marine heading, but they don't have lids> also tried emailing Barr Plastics in Abbotsford but haven't received a reply (its been 3 days)

Or if anyone has at least one they could sell?

Thanks in advance

Tagging along. I also want a tank like this only perhaps a cylinder with lid.

5g, cylindrical with a lid, sounds like a salt bucket. Just kidding, I got a large 50g in the same style from Wings Foods for $10, it was a pickle barrel. Food places like this will have all sorts of different sizes, I've seen olive jugs that look to be around 5g in size that are like the above picture except black and cylindrical.

I'll have a chat with the photo department next time I'm there, thanks

Cylinders are much easier to find than the vertical rectangles, industrial plastics would have those

I'd be worried they were holding something prior not fishy safe.
I got my 5 g buckets from a plastic wholesaler in the coquitlam industrial park if memory serves. See thru with lid, serves as alk/ca resovoirs
