Small Water Butts

Water Butts created by recycling plastic barrels are a responsible way to save water and protect the environment.  It is very cost efficient too!  We always have  stock and advise you to come and pick your water butt from the choice we have available on the day.  We have stocks ready to go.  You can choose to have your plastic water butt with or without a tap and you can have the top cut out or with a screw top.   In fact, if you want to, you can come and select your base barrel and choose exactly where you want your tap put, or top cut.  We offer choice - supplies can vary on a day to day basis.
  If you are unable to come and visit us - we can send Water Butts and barrels to most postcodes areas in the UK.
