A dual bucket assembly (10) comprises a dual bucket (20) including first and second containers (30,50) adapted for holding liquid, a connecting member (70) and a bail (80). Each container includes a peripheral wall (31,51) having an upper end (32,52) having a top edge (33,53), a proximal portion (34,54) adjacent the other container and a non-proximal portion (37,57). Connecting member (70) rigidly connects in a spaced apart relationship upper ends (32,52) of peripheral walls (31,51). Peripheral walls (31,51) are downwardly inwardly sloping such that a plurality of dual buckets (20) are nestable. The top edge (33,53) of each non-proximal portion (37,57) is smoothly arcuate. Peripheral walls (31,51) and connecting member (70) are adapted for simultaneously pouring liquid contents from both containers (30,50) into separate storage vessels. A leveling device (90), such as a bail detent mechanism (91), selectively secures proximal end (81) of bail (80) such that the position of bail distal end (82) is selectively maintained substantially above the center of gravity (12) of dual bucket assembly (10) when assembly (10) is freely hung from bail distal end (82).
