Changing Water for a 120 Gallon Aquarium

I have a 120 gallon aquarium I am working on in my living room and it's pretty far from a sink. My idea for changing the water right now is to siphon it out using a water hose, then refill it using water I will keep in its cabinet stored in 12 one-gallon containers. Does anybody have any different ideas that might ease the burden a bit or might work better?

Far as I know (I have yet to get one myself, I need my tax return first!), most people either add the conditioner as the water is going back in the tank or they add it before refilling but I think there's the concern of overdosing when you add it first. Temp-wise you check it over the sink first, there's a valve to start and stop the flow into the tank.
