Water carriers

RoB5urf · Aug 21, 2020

Any recommendations for a water carrier? We've been making do with various bottles but am sure there's something better.
Needs to be secure, i.e. not leak, and preferably collapsible. I don't fancy those bags you hang up as most of the time it will be in the van.
The Outwell one looks good but might be too big. Thoughts?

If i would have a beach i think a solid one (not the collapseble type)with a fixed tap would be the one to use , at least 15l ?

Without leaving the comfort of my camping chair...

8 litre collapsable water container with tap. Kept just outside the drive away awning as the tap can drip a few drops immediately after use.

We have Ridgemonkey water carriers, nice solid pieces of kit.

We have 4 x 1.5ltr bottles from decathlon and keep 2 in each of the doors of the van to maximise space in van. The size of the bottles is ideal for dispatching young minions to go and fill them up when on site

We could store 3 in each side if we wanted, but we use those VW bins in the side doors as well

We got a collapsible from club shop. Used it on 5 trips and so far pretty good.its not heavy in fact plastic is thin so down side may be not long term as robust.
