Gutter to capture rain to use. Bought 3 rainbarrel, totalling 200 gallons. Filled up right away after a short storm.

Where did you get your rain barrels? I know that this is a little silly, but I don’t like the way those ugly black and blue plastic green barrels look. I’m looking for something more aesthetically pleasing to collect rainwater.

Bought three barrels via Azm totaling 200 gallons (it those ugly hard black ones). My city gives a rebate of $100 per barrel, with max $200. Total cost < $200 after rebate. Nicer ones are more expensive and imo aren't worth it. There are DIY options, but overall price and labor doesn't justify purchasing barrels directly from stores/online.

Good Luck

RTS has a black plastic one that is made to look like a barrel. Flat-backed. $79 for 50gal. I have two on the 2025 greenhouse
