I am using 5 gal bucket for my water change. I want to buy a container/barrel that is a bit bigger to ease my bigger water change routine. What type of container that is fish safe and where can i buy it?

Home depot's 5gallon bucket is commonly used. For bigger changes, rubbermaid garbage bin or those blue bins are common. As long as its made of food grade plastic, its fine.

You should post how many gallons roughly you want for your water change container volume. I don't think you're thinking of a 55g barrel.

If you want half barrel , country feeds just up the road from co-op sells them, I use one to do my water changes holds approx. 24 gallons.

how big are you looking? Rain barrels work awesome, but they are 100G plus, we use 40G storage totes, I built a simple 2x4 cart to wheel them around on, they work awesome and stack into eachother.

The rubbermaid BRUTE's are awesome. And they do come in a smaller size. They have 20, 32, and 44 gallons available. Very versatile and common in this hobby. They also have special "Brute" dolleys available if you wanted to roll them around.
