Yep that is what I do, I use the plastic containers I get salad or other
stuff in I would throw away, fill it and freeze it, I add some water to it
and put the blocks on the frozen tray and they get cold and hydrated at the
same time.

we use something like this:
https://www.vwrsp.com/catalog/product/index.cgi?catalog_number=414004-256&in
E=1&highlight=414004-256

we keep several sizes in the freezer, depending on how many blocks we need
to cut.  The nice thing is that it is cheap and you can hydrate your blocks
at the same time you are chilling them.

We actually use a styrofoam box (used for shipping) and it stays cold longer
with very little melting.  We keep a couple in the -20 freezer.

    Fill a Tupperware container with water, pop it in the freezer, and
tomorrow you will have a portable block chiller, with the blocks at a
perfect level for your needs, for 1/100th the price.

smarta$$, but....
