I use a windshield washer jug with the side cut out. Fits nicely under the frame rail.

Get one of those turkey roasting disposable aluminum pans at the grocery store. Just a couple of bucks and they fit under the bike really well.

I took an empty anti-freeze gallon jug, laid it on its side, and cut the top(side) out of it. It works perfect. Of course you want to leave the cap on it when using it in this manner.
