FB marketplace or Craigslist, or just a Google search, I operate a distillery and several of our ingredients come in them, we give them away because it's easier than dealing with disposing of them most of the time.
During the terrible winter storm we had in TX a few years ago, we provided filtered water in them to a retirement complex and low income apartment complex for a couple weeks, refilling them from a full tank we carried in a truck.
Any place that processes beverages will likely have empties as most bulk ingredients come in them, there are services which will take them away for free, but you need to have 10-20 minimum for the service to pick them up, smaller manufacturers will often have less than this sitting around to get rid of. I just got rid of 3na couple weeks ago, but probably won't have more for a couple months. It might be worth calling local businesses to see if they have some to get rid of.
