You can get large 55 gal plastic drums from the local carwash. Make contact with the Manager, they are used as the soap supply. The soap is bio-degradeable, so the containers are not contaminated with harsh chemicals. Flush them out with some water and you are good to go. Of course, you will still need to treat the water for consumption, but I would do that if the water sat for any extended period, in any container. If you have the space, can also get 200 gal containers from same source. Remember, 200 gals only last a family of four for 30 days, at best.
