If you're in an apartment or small space, you've got to figure out a way to store water where it won't be in the way. The Aqua-Tainer holds 7 gallons of water. That's enough drinking water for a family of four for a day or so, or two people for almost 4 days. We recommend using a combination of these and WaterBricks to store around the apartment — as many as you can, ideally. Much better than buying five-gallon cheap-o containers from the grocery store which tend to evaportate and leak.
