I am using 45G food quality drums for water top off and water change. with the use of pumps in the drums for mixing and moving I can do a 45G water change in about 15 minutes without lifting, carrying or spilling.

I use Instant Ocean and those are empty. I usually buy 4 buckets on during boxing day sales and that will do me for the year. I also add both mag and ca to bring the IO salt up to the required levels.
