Try your local Indian / Chinese takeaways. Indian restaurants usually get ghee in buckets for example like this

Welcome to the forum.
I'd suggest smaller 5 or 10 litre ones. You'll need more of them, but they will make stock rotation and simply moving your stuff FAR easier. If you must use big buckets, have smaller bagged parcels inside.
Get a few indelible pens for date labelling your vac bags and tins. Stash what you are familiar with or get familiar with what you stash.
