I can't speak for others but a 25 litre container of water on a straight lift is plenty enough weight thanks.  No problem pulling more than that along but with loose containers, you have to lift them onto the trolley usually.

That's a bit like asking how long a piece of string is but on maintenance cleans you would probably squeeze two such houses out of it if you keep the flow rate down and switch the water off while moving things around..  First cleans are different though.  I've used a lot more than 25 litres on a dirty first clean before now.
