Moving from Saskatoon to Calgary

[dwerbs87]

Hey everyone, figured this would be the best place to ask for tips on pulling off a move like this.
I have a 140 gallon aquarium with a dozen fish and a bunch of live rock and not too many corals at the moment, with a couple inches of sand.

What would be the best way to go about moving all of this 5 hours away? I was thinking of buying a couple rubbermaid garbage cans to hold water, rock, and fish. My thinking is large tubs of water will hold temp for longer, or should I get a dozen or so 5 gallon buckets?

I heard that if you have sand you should just get rid of it and start over when moving, is this the case?

Any other information you guys have will be VERY helpful.
