large oil container for oil change on a lift

I have a scissor lift and up to now when I do an oil change I grab my large plastic open container and use that. I lift the car up maybe a foot or so but that's it. I'm now wanting to purchase one similiar to what a garage would use. Maybe 5-6 gallon and with a tube that extends so I can have the car 48 inches in the air and have it drain into it. Where does someone buy these ? I don't believe I've ever seen these at local FLAPS but maybe a NAPA ? Open to suggestions. Thanks

You can get a carboy.....

They say "not for fuel or oil" but I've used them. You can get the Nalgene ones but they are spendy.
