That’s like a 50 gallon container. Water weighs 8 pounds per gallon so turning that up would be like lifting about 400 pounds.

Places that drummed product that I visited, filled 55 gallon drums to 450#. That gave a little room for thermal expansion.
Most of the products had densities a bit higher than pure water.
One place I visited back in the day had drums of Freon 12. 650#!
They had a rule that handling them had to be a 2 person job.
