What are these, and where might they be found?

Normally a cube roughly 1m a side (odd that for 1000l...) made from
translucent poly-something. Fitted inside a galavanised metal frame to
protect them and allow stacking/fork lifting. For water storage the
translucence is a PITa as it allows light in and thus algae to grow...

They are often available second hand, in fact I think there are a few
companies that deal in them as their business. Previous contents can be,
erm, interesting anything from noxious chemicals to orange juice.
