Any tips for a task like this?

Drain what water you can from the system by conventional means, then arm
yourself with lots of old towels and some small shallow trays if you can
find any that fit (foil food trays can be good) and a bucket. Line area
under pipe with old towel to catch drips, and place tray under pipe.
Make a small nick through the pipe with a hacksaw. That way you can
control water egress by sticking your thumb over the hole (if you dive
straight in with a pipe cutter you may end up with more than you
bargained for)! Then just fill a tray, stop the flow of water, empty and
replace. Keep going until the pipe is empty. Remember you may get a
little extra out of the pipe when you finally cut through.
