think large paint tubs, look up your local painter and decorator, he would be please to see you take his empties,..also the same sort of container that hold fence preservative, or go to your local hotels and ask for their containers that they get cooking oil delivered in.
I even ask the farmers to save me the container that hold the sheep licks in,...all these items are thrown away after use

Would these tubs be suitable for holding tins inside though? Cheers

Yes,.. anything that will keep out the moisture from the tins when outside, will do a good job inside,... and remember that most [ if not all ] these type of containers `stack`, so you can store a great deal within a couple of feet of floor space
