I hope I never need them but feel secure that should the water main rupture again, I've no worries about having water besides what's in the hot water heater and toilet tanks! Very likely to get 4 more as I go through a 5 gallon jug each week for coffee and drinking and cooking. If the water goes out again, I'll need more than that for washing and doing dishes, so another set of 4 will be added comfort. Oh, these are great for carrying, very tough and the bottoms are designed to nestle with the top of the jug below it for secure upright stacking. The have smooth sides and will be slippery on their sides so plan on them being upright. I also bought a spout to go with them but have not tested it yet. The air vent caps cover a non-vented spud, so should there be need to use the spout, I might have to drill a vent hole in the spud. No biggie. The main caps have tamper-proof ratchet rings on the lids that click when you put them on and snap off (like bottled water from the convenience store). I do not have security concerns so cut off the rings as I needed them to seal at the well (20 miles away) and not leak during transport, and be openable for the addition of bleach once home again. I have pretty good hand strength, but found it necessary to use the wrench to torque the lids down for a secure seal. Get a wrench! You'll want it air tight so bacteria doesn't get drawn in during barometric changes. There's no way to eliminate the air pockets created by the nesting ridges on the top, so when you seal it up for storage, wrench those lids down TIGHT! Review: Better than expected. I had few of the problems others list. - I ordered these somewhat cautiously, as there are a number of reviews citing issues. I figured I'd give them a try. I bought the 60 gallon (12 containers) package and after reading reviews with complaints about smell, plastic-quality questions, lid seal, and needing to buy expensive accessories, I am very happy to report: - Little to no smell. If I really take a deep snort with my nose jammed in there, yeah I kind of smell plastic. But it's very faint. Nothing like what some other customers reported (and I'm not knocking their reviews, I'm sure theirs smelled). No stronger than a new plastic water bottle, and I'm going to wash/bleach them out anyway, so this was a non-issue for me. - Lids. Some customers report not getting lids (though I also see review updates indicating good customer service later supplying them). Mine had lids, although they were deep in the box in a separate envelope, so it may appear at first that yours don't have any. - Plastic quality. Some customers called out missing or cryptic markings on their containers. Mine are stamped all over with HDPE, the "2" in the arrows, all that BPE-free good stuff. I have no concerns about the plastic (and the containers are very sturdy). - Accessories. Mine came with a wrench for the lids! I was very happy to see this, especially as I didn't see it mentioned in the product description. I wonder whether, after complaints about lids, the company started being more diligent about including them and also threw in a wrench for free? But that's conjecture. Also, when I ordered these the delivery estimate was 2-3 weeks. They came in 5 days! Very impressed with this product and the service so far. Now, in fairness, I haven't filled these yet. So if there are issues with leaking, I will definitely update the review. But between the information about cutting off the collar on the lids, and the bonus wrench they included, I'm confident all should work well. UPDATE: Out of my 12, one had a tiny leak no matter how I tried to seal the lid. A couple others leaked when I sealed them, but by removing the lid and then re-wrenching it on I was able to get a perfect seal with no drips. The one container just leaked no matter how I secured the lid. It was just a small drop every couple seconds when I inverted the container, but this means the water isn't perfectly sealed so it's a concern. I'll see how that water is compared to the others when I open them. Also, the vent opening (the small spout on the rear with the small white cap) leaked on a few, and on a couple I used plumber's tape on the threads to get a better seal on the vent. The vent holes took a lot of work to drill out. There is a lot of plastic down in that neck, and of course all that debris has to be cleared. This was pretty easily accomplished with the repeated soaping/bleaching/rinsing I was planning to do anyway, but just to say I was surprised how thick that plug was. I do agree with others that instructions would have been useful, but there's enough information online that I think I'll be okay. UPDATE Here are the steps I used on each container, in case this helps anyone: 1. Drill out the vent hole. As mentioned, this takes some doing unless you have an amazing drill. 2. Rinse container with warm water. This should get rid of much of the plastic debris from drilling. 3. Add more warm water and a drop of antibacterial dish soap. You don't need much! On my first few containers I used much more soap and had to rinse many times because it foamed up so much. Seal the soapy water in there and shake vigorously for several seconds to clean thoroughly. 4. Rinse out all soap. If you have a sink with a sprayer, that will come in super handy: put the contained upside down to make sure you get it all out. 5. Optional: Add some cold water, seal and shake, pour into a glass and sip. Did you get all the soap out? :-) 6. Add 1 teaspoon (5ml) of bleach to 1 quart water, pour into container, seal and shake vigorously for several seconds. 7. Rinse thoroughly. 8. Optional: Shake up some more cold water in there and taste it. Should taste great. 9. Fill partially with cold water, add 1/2 teaspoon bleach, continue adding water until full. The bleach is to preserve the water and prevent algae/bacteria. Ready.gov recommends 1/8 tsp bleach per gallon, which is 1/2 tsp for 4 gallons. I stuck with this for my 5 gallons. On other sites I saw as much as 1tsp and as little as 1/4 mentioned for 5 gallons. 10. Seal and store, somewhere dark that won't get too warm. Label with a Sharpie: Date filled and amount of bleach added. One final note, I did order this for $9 because I knew I'd need a spigot. I highly recommend this one accessory. https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B01DFW90GY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ## Features - PORTABLE, STACKABLE WATER CONTAINERS: These 5-gallon water containers are designed with flat bottoms and tops that nestle together to help stack more water in less space. The handles make them ideal for moving around, and the built-in twist breathing ports make it easy to pour out the contents of your containers without them getting air locked. This kit includes 20 individual 5-gallon water containers with lids. - 200 DAYS OF DRINKING WATER: It’s recommended to have half a gallon of water per person per day when preparing an emergency water reservoir for your household. This kit provides 20 containers that are 5 gallons each for about 200 days of washing, cooking, or fresh drinking water storage. The amount of water needed varies by a person’s size and use, and each portable container weighs about 40 lbs. when filled with liquid. - MADE FROM BPA-FREE HDPE PLASTIC: Our high-quality water containers are made from 100% food-grade plastic, which also makes them useful for storing other liquids or food necessities. They are BPA-free and made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), so you’ll have a safe, durable, refillable water container that can weather any storm. - IDEAL FOR TRAVEL & EMERGENCY STORAGE: If you’re looking for a reliable water container for emergency storage, camping, boating, or beach trips, or even for a watering station for an outdoor event, this kit is exactly what you need.

Food grade and safe to save drinking water. Just keep it clean, in a dark and cool place. I also add a teaspoon of plain chlorine. Will buy more soon. Perfect size, not too big & heavy. Stackable and space saving. I like & recommend them for preppers. ## Frequently Bought Together - Saratoga Farms 5-Gallon Stackable Water Storage Containers, Emergency Water Storage for Camping and Disaster Preparedness, 100 Gallons - LifeStraw Personal Water Purifier for Hiking, Camping, Travel, and Emergency Preparedness - Potable Aqua Water Purification Tablets, Portable and Effective Water Purification Solution for Camping, Hiking, Emergencies, Natural Disasters and International Travel, Two 50ct Bottles, Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/105350976-5-gallon-stackable-water-storage-containers-emergency-water-storage-camping](https://www.desertcart.no/products/105350976-5-gallon-stackable-water-storage-containers-emergency-water-storage-camping) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
