Good evening, with us in our region we have a company of champoing shower gel, body milk, etc., they receive the preparations in cubi of 1000 l each time they are empty
they are sent back by rail convoy and in this way they are delivered in full cubies, but after a while like the pallets, they reform the cubis, so as not to throw them away,
they sell them at a low price 10 € each, which is worth it but you have to wash them inside to be able to put rainwater in them
I guess in other regions you also have this kind of business

charcoal absorbs a large number of chemicals, including those which give bad taste
it does not disinfect but by absorbing what feeds the microbes it prevents them from proliferating
the problem is that this charcoal must be well cooked at high temperature to no longer contain dirt itself
unfortunately the combustible charcoal is never overcooked because it would increase the loss at the manufacturer: failing to be clean it is still absorbent
activated charcoal is only specially cooked charcoal to be more absorbent

Hello,
I highly recommend flexible tanks !!! No need for maintenance, they are freestanding suddenly, if you move you can take it with you and reinstall it in your new house.
In addition, flexible tanks very easily blend into the landscape, they can be put everywhere (under a terrace, in crawl spaces, outside) and with the anti UV fabric viruses, micro, and bacteria are eliminated. It's great and especially guaranteed 10 years !!
I advise you Sodeveaux or Reserveaux (it's the same box but reserveaux is an online shopping site, if you already know what you want)

Rainwater recovery
Hello,
The recovery of rainwater via a flexible tank is a much cheaper solution than the hard solution. It installs very quickly without foundation so without cost of foundation, masonry. The disadvantage is obviously the aesthetic side because the flexible c tank above ground. It is a personal choice. You can find on the web a lot of site which presents these solutions as for example (but there are others it is just to illustrate)

I confirm that a number of companies receive liquids (food or not: glucose, olive oil, glue, ...) in cubi of 1000 liters. These cubi are consigned but it often costs more to charter a truck to send them back to the shipping company than to resell them locally, or even destroy them on the spot (crushing on the tractor and heading for the bucket! )
In my region, I was able to recover it at a low price and even free of charge (to make water supplies for sprinkling or to water horses) from companies manufacturing candied fruit, ready meals, oil olive and a company manufacturing prefabricated walls for building (contained glue for insulation, yuck! I do not recommend).
My method: yellow pages or internet, then the phone ...

"The search for progress does not exclude the love of tradition"
Hello, I know some people who bought these cubis of 1000l in fact this company gets rid of them because they were reformed
I have all the cubis have an "expiration" label
so since it is expensive to have them dismantled so they sell them, another detail, we can find this type of cubi in large DIY stores for 150 €, and well they buy them from these companies and have them cleaned by others companies and sell them at a high price
