Good Ideas Big Blue 55 Gallon Recycled Plastic Rain Barrel Water Collector Drum

People are always telling you to save for a rainy day, but you also need to save for a not-so-rainy day. When drought hits, have some water stashed away with the 55-Gallon Recycled Plastic Rain Barrel from Good Ideas.

It's not tree-hugging to be happy that this barrel was rescued and recycled before being tossed into a landfill. It's been cleaned and sanitized to a food-grade level to save you money and the planet from unnecessary waste.

This 55-gallon barrel can sit right under your downspout to catch rain as it runs off your roof. Its recycled materials resist rust, mold, mildew, and algae to keep the water fresh as long as you need it. Easy to move at only 19 pounds, you’ll have no trouble getting the barrel set up right where you want it.

With 55 gallons of storage, you can stow away lots of pure, unchlorinated water for dry spells when municipalities limit water usage. Don't worry about critters, insects, and debris getting into your water because this barrel uses a plastic mesh screen to keep out the undesirables. It comes with a brass spigot and 0.75-inch plug so you control the height of the spigot. Since a single rainstorm can produce hundreds of gallons of water, you can reduce your usage from the water system by up to 40 percent.

The Good Ideas Rain Barrel is sturdy enough to remain outside during the winter but should be drained when temperatures fall below freezing. It will also hold up under the strongest sunlight without damage.

Don’t let that pure rainwater flow down the city storm sewers anymore. You'll be able to put that water to good use with the 55-Gallon Plastic Rain Barrel from Good Ideas.
