how big are you looking? Rain barrels work awesome, but they are 100G plus, we use 40G storage totes, I built a simple 2x4 cart to wheel them around on, they work awesome and stack into eachother.

The rubbermaid BRUTE's are awesome. And they do come in a smaller size. They have 20, 32, and 44 gallons available. Very versatile and common in this hobby. They also have special "Brute" dolleys available if you wanted to roll them around.
