We run out with buckets! Actually one of our tubs is outdoors anyway, so
that makes it easy. It has a shower too, so we put the plug in and let the
water collect when we shower. Upstairs bathtub we usually use the water to
wash the floors with. In the sink we have a pail that we collect the water
in, and avoid collecting the most soapy stuff. I'm sure there is a better
way to do this but we're pretty low-tech at this house.
