Survival Purpose
Having clean water to stay hydrated during and emergency is critical. We recommend storing portable, potable water on hand in an evacuation or mobile situation can be lifesaving. Sometimes there is distance between water resources and we're forced to move or camp is set away from the water resource for some reason. Be prepared with durable, stackable 5 gallon water containers to ensure mobility and hydration resources.
We recommend having a number of 5 gallon water jugs for easy transport for Stage 3 survival preparation. Store them full of water and cycle the water occasionally so it's always somewhat fresh.
Stackable water storage is ideal because it can be 'bricked in' and then easily loaded into a vehicle for transport.
What We Like
- Stackable Storage - A 55 gallon water drum is fine but it's very hard to transport. You can store the same amount of water with these containers and have them be mobile.
- Universal Mouth - These water containers have a wide mouth for easy fill and pour.
- Durable - We've put ours through the test. They last for years in all sorts of conditions and abuse. I have yet to break one.
- Size - 5 gallons is enough for an adult or large child to carry. When possible, carry 2 for balance.
- Leak Resistant - Military and emergency organizations use these water containers because they are durable and leak resistent
Tips and Recommendations
- Store them Full - Be ready for evacuation with full containers. Be sure to cycle the water so it is fresh. You can find the right amount of bleach to add for extended storage.
- Have Two or More - Many adults can carry two at a time which is a balanced load and a full 10 gallons of mobile water
Safe and Secure
