Container for compressor Auto drain?

[sherrod624]

Anyone have any ideas on a container that I could pipe my compressor drain into. It's not in a very good location to pipe outside. A 5 gal bucket full of rags? Open to ideas. I'm sure somebody's done it before.

Run a hose or tubing to a good place thru the wall. Mine is simply out the side, I don't have auto though but 3 vessels plumbed to the same drain, I used old copper water line, found all but 1 piece made.

I don't have easy access to an outside wall. Also I don't run the compressor daily. Just on the weekend airing up tires and using nail guns mostly. My drain only dumps if the switch to the compressor is on.

At work we use one of those 5 gal plastic fuel jugs.
The ones used for race fuel.
Hose runs into a hole in the cap

Once in a while it has to be drained

I used a gallon water container with some rubber line
