Install Your Own Rain Barrel

We haven't had a lot of rain, but now is the time to start thinking of all the rain we get in the summertime and make good use of it. A great way to harvest the rainfall is with rain barrels.  They are easy to install and are now legal for use in all communities including HOA's.  The Florida-friendly statute states that HOA's cannot prohibit rain barrels. 


We'll be talking to Jerry Butler today from Industrial Containers Services in Zellwood.  His company recycles 55 gallon drums as rain barrels available to homeowners inexpensively.

 
The rain barrels cost $38 plus tax.  Very reasonable, especially when purchasing multiple barrels to irrigate your lawn compared to a water bill. To contact Industrial Container Services and purchase a rainbarrel, call 407-889-5500.
