they used to make 5 gallon metal cans. Metal wire handle. 2" or so spout
with a 1' or so cap on top of that. IIRC, oil used to come in them. I need
a couple for trash oil. Any idea where to find any?

My 2 2cent answers a
a. Round 5 gallon kerosene cans at HomeDepot/Lowes/etc - mainly sold
for heaters?
b. Military surplus 20liter/5 gallon "jerry" cans. IMHO the NATO/claw
spout style is way better than the screw cap type. Lots of great
design details http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerrycan

These are pretty expensive but also very nice plastic fuel/water
containers in Jerry can style.
