Emergency Bottled Water
Water Direct deploys emergency bottled water to water loss incidents on a daily basis for our commercial, and water utility clients alike. Bottled water is the fastest way to respond to any water loss incident, where we use our fleet of self offload vehicles to deploy pallets of bottled water to site.
We provide our clients with bottled water as an alternative water supply when; the speed of deployment is paramount; it is not possible to send a water tanker due to the terrain. Emergency bottled water is supplied by the pallet, in 2 litre and 500ml bottles. The 2 litre bottles are packed in cases of 6, and the 500ml are packed in cases of 24 bottles.
Our emergency bottled water stock is held at regional facilities nationwide, ensuring a rapid response to most areas of the UK in the event of an emergency. We can deploy any volume of bottled water from a single pallet, to multiple vehicles carrying up to 26 pallets. The majority of our fleet has a hiab, tail lift or moffet mounty to offload. During large deployments for our utility and facilities management clients we can provide a multi drop, and even a doorstep delivery service.
All of the bottled water that we supply during an emergency water deployment complies with Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000, as amended at the point and time of delivery.
When advising organisations with regards to their water contingency plans, bottled water is generally the first part of any plan where providing water quickly for people’s welfare is concerned. Pallets can easily be broken down into cases and transferred around a building to kitchen areas, the working environment and even to toilets where two or three bottles can be used to flush a toilet and wash hands, if necessary.
If you are a water utility company, facilities management company or even an employer looking to provide an assured bottled water response, as part of your business continuity plan you should consider talking to us about our contingency planning service and the Nationwide Bottled Water Bank.
As an emergency water supplier, Water Direct can provide you with a rapid response comprising not just bottled water, but water tankers, temporary water storage tanks, pillow tanks, water bowsers and on site supervision during your incident.
