Containers for water storage

[Cloudburst2000]

I am considering setting up a LiterMeter III for continuous water changes on one of my nano tanks. I will be drilling through the wall into the closet in the bathroom. In that closet, I will need a container for fresh salt water, a container for waste water, and a container for my top-off RODI water. I would like to change about 4g-5g per week with the LiterMeter. I only lose about two cups per day due to evaporation as I use a glass cover on the tank so the ATO water container can be smaller. Anyhoo, I currently store my buckets in this closet. On the floor of the closet, I can fit two regular buckets but this would leave no room for an ATO container. Are there any better options then buckets with about 4-5g capacity? I could use containers that were a bit taller than buckets because I do have some space left in the closet above the buckets and before the first shelf. I can get a smaller container from work (about 2.5g) for the ATO since I don't loose that much per day, but these containers are too small for the fresh saltwater and waste water. I'd appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!

I just had an issue with a ATO container. The place my tank sits I only had about 12" width. I used this:

It is a dog food container and works great. Holds about 5 gallons. Would work perfect.

Those look awesome! I'll check them out. I especially like the wheels because they would be easy to move when mixing up new saltwater. Thanks!

I bought one of these at Costco recently. It's 15" x 18" x 24" for about 17 gallons. I think it was around $15 or so - starting to wish I'd bought 3 of them.
I have a smaller one (7 gallons) that I'd found somewhere else and use it for ATO.

I ordered this, just have to wait three more weeks to get it. http://www.plastic-mart.com/product/3675/10-gallon-vertical-plastic-storage-tank-vt0010-12

These are really AWESOME! Make sure you take off the wheels though.
