Do you know someone who has a 5 gallon diesel can?

This. For only 25gal, you would be better off just hauling it

Thank you guys. I don't have a diesel container, but I guess I can go buy one. How do you get the lid to open? Do you need a special tool?

Nope. Sometimes the caps are on hand tight - otherwise an adjustable wrench will make short work of it.

go to home depot or lowes and get the yellow gas cans. those mean it's diesel inside it. it just has a screw top. fill it up at the gas station, take it home, unscrew the back of the house connection and literally pour it in.
I ended up getting two so that I can fill them 10 gallons combined. Which is about how bad it can drink gas on the coldest day of the year.

Find somewhere with off-road diesel if you can (cheaper)

Buy a plastic 55 gallon drum. There’s a guy in Kingston who sells them for 15 bucks. Most people use them for boat docks

no way OP is handling a 55 gallon drum of diesel.

No one is going to let you fill a drum
