If you can find someone who uses chemicals out of 5 gallon containers they make great fuel transporters as long as you use a Super Siphon to actually fuel the vessels. But if you use a Super Siphon the crazy way the tanks are vented now is immaterial also. We haven't had the Super Siphon conversation in a while, but since learning of them I never "pour" fuel from a can any more.

You may can even buy the chemical containers, I never checked. My neighbor uses them exclusively and made his own siphon. The opening on these containers is about 2 inches and he made a siphon that barely fits in the hole. It will drain a five gallon container in about 30 seconds. All you need is tubing and a check valve.
