Rain barrels, wholesale and recycled, save precious water resources and money too.

Rain barrels are a brilliant old idea which is coming back into fashion as more and more people become aware of the importance of water conservation. The principle of a rain barrel is simple; you collect the rain water which falls on your roof into a barrel, then use it to water your garden later when it’s needed. Not only do you save precious water resources, by using a rain barrel you also stand to save a significant amount of money on your water bills. If you want to save even more money on rain barrels, wholesale and recycled barrels are options you should consider. Wholesale rain barrels are usually only available for large quantity purchases, but if you do a little shopping around, you can get some great bargains on rain barrels.

Finding the best prices on rain barrels.

Some suppliers will offer special wholesale prices for large quantity orders, usually of one hundred rain barrels or more. This type of wholesale deal is particularly attractive for businesses and organizations who use large quantities of rain barrels, such as conservation organizations, nurseries and municipalities.

If you are looking for a good price on a single rain barrel, or a few for your home, recycled rain barrels are a very inexpensive, environmentally sensitive option. Not only do you save precious rain water, you are also reducing landfill by reusing materials which would otherwise be discarded. Recycled rain barrels are made from plastic food barrels previously used to contain goods such as olives and pickles, or white oak barrels used for whiskey. You can buy the barrels already converted into a rain barrel, or buy the barrel raw and simply add the plumbing yourself. You can also use recycled barrels as planters, for storage, or for any other purpose you can think of.
