Some great veg containers from the car wash

[lancaster,pa]

Recently got some really nice containers for storing and transporting veg. My local car wash used to get soap and cleaners in 5 gallon buckets with an open top like a dry wall bucket. They recently switched to 5 gallon containers kinda like cubies. The container is rigid and made with plastic that is thick and strong. The container has a heavy duty handle and a large diameter screw down lid with a gasket. Very easy to clean out and a secure way to transport veg without the fear of a leak. - Patrick

I've also found some really good containers from pools (chlorine comes in it) or at hotels (laundry detergent)-they are both thick plastic with screw on lids. I have also used these on long road trips-just filled them up in the bed of the truck and when my tank runs out I used a bilge pump (hand pump-used in whitewater rafts) to transfer the oil from the 15 gallon container to the tank. It works well and does the job fast!

Bio, any worry of contamination from previous contents? I imagine a good cleaning would do it, but it's something I always think about.

What do you use to clean them out?
