A rollable paint bucket which will be maneuvered on a floor by the painter manipulating an extended handle of a paint roller assembly is disclosed. The bucket will have a body, a plurality of rolling members and a structural configuration which permits placement of the paint roller on the bucket where it will remain in contact during maneuvering of the bucket on the floor by the painter. The body has a paint containment area and a rolling surface. The painter may easily replenish fresh paint on the paint roller and roll the paint roller to obtain a desired quantity and uniformity of coverage on the paint roller. The bucket permits the painter to paint a large area, along a great distance, while remaining standing straight. This eliminates the conventional need for the painter to manually move their supply of fresh paint which often involves bending or squatting.
