I'm not so sure now that's actually a good idea. In case of a spill a  
violent chemical reaction would take place, probably releasing gasses that  
might put the bucket under pressure or heat causing all sorts of trouble.  
Also, "pure" HCl seems easier to re-use or neutralize for disposal than  
some mixtures you might get.
