What in everyone's experience does the residue clean out of the barrels or totes best? Which ones to stay away from? Thanks

Hit or miss with all liquids. I've had some clean out well with a pressure washer and bleach and some with water and baking soda. Never feel 100% sure about them though. I have 2 x 275 gallons cage totes that I use for permeate only , and I bought 2 brand new 275 gallon cage tanks that were never used for sap storage. Use a poly tank from TSC for my head tank.
I do like the cage tanks because I can easily move them around by myself. I get them for $200 brand new so it makes sense to me.

I use 55 gallon food grade blue plastic barrels that contained fruit juice concentrate. Rinse out with water and vinegar and rinse. No issues. Check Craig's list or find a juice bottler nearby.
