You've a good eye Eddie. The brown area you see in the pic is actually the downhill side of a conservation berm. We had to rebuild it. Most of the wash from upslope collects on the other side and channeled away. We still have to do a culvert (two 20 in pipes in cement) where it crosses the drive (out of pic). I did observe the flow/drainage near the container a couple weeks ago when we got 5 inches rain in <24 hours. I do have a flat area behind container that can be improved.

I got mine thru the Atlanta office of
ConGlobal

It was about $2K, but I also needed the seaworthy inspection certificate.

Dry mix is an interestin thought. Not sure I can do that as my sand is pretty damp.

Anybody have a recommendation for best cement-sand-aggragate ratio?
My sand seems to be a manufactured product (from the rock quarry), not like sand I was used to on east coast. My aggragate is 3/4 base, which usually has a fair amount of fines.

I'm looking to find some used plastic barrels to haul my water.

The ratio should be nearly 3-2-1, of aggregate-sand-cement. Since your aggregate has a good bit of sand in it already you'll have to account for that.
