Emergency Water Storage Barrels

Emergency water storage is vital for preparedness in every household. Ensuring your family has access to clean and safe water is essential when disaster strikes. Power failures, floods, or contamination events can abruptly disrupt water availability. At The Ready Store, we provide durable barrels designed to give you confidence that safe water will be available in difficult times.

Our comprehensive storage kits are designed for flexibility and efficiency, catering to individuals, couples, and families of any size. No matter your living situation, we offer kit options to suit your unique requirements. A broad selection of sizes helps you customize your supplies. This way, you can assemble a system tailored for your home and always be ready for unexpected challenges.

Every barrel and container in our collection is crafted from food-grade, BPA-free plastic that helps maintain water purity. You can trust these materials to prevent unwanted odors and contamination, unlike regular buckets or unspecialized tanks. Our barrels keep your water free from harmful chemicals and impurities. Whether you’re cooking, cleaning, or drinking, you’ll have safe water through any crisis.

Planning For Emergency Water Storage: 

In any crisis, water serves several purposes beyond drinking. Families need it for washing, preparing meals, and cleaning. Earthquakes, intense storms, or supply interruptions can leave homes without water for long periods. Proper emergency water storage solutions let you maintain a reliable supply and avoid unwanted risks.

Experts strongly suggest storing at least one gallon per person daily for emergencies. Our various kits make measuring and maintaining this supply effortless. Using these solutions is the best way to store water for emergency plans. With careful storage, you need to have water stored for drinking, meal prep, and hygiene needs.

National agencies recommend people have a two-week water reserve for each member of your household for an emergency. Our convenient Water storage solutions make storing water for your whole family easy. 

Setting Up an Emergency Water Storage System for Your Home

• Calculate container needs by counting household members. Plan for one gallon per person, per day. Review how much water you should keep in storage here.
• Store barrels in cool, shaded areas to stop sunlight from affecting the water quality.
• Rotate your reserves regularly. With tight seals and water treatment, storage can last up to five years. More on why and how to rotate your water supply on our blog.
• To extend water life, treat with purification drops, such as our ION Water Treatment or tablets. Read about other water treatment alternatives here.

Filling barrels is simple: use tap water with approved additives and mark your fill date. Regularly rotating your supply ensures freshness and reduces risks. We offer critical accessories, including spare lids, siphon pumps, and water treatment tablets, making long-term storage secure and user-friendly for all households.
