Anyone have other ideas for bulk water storage? (Or possible sources
for containers that might be reachable from the Taunton area, I guess,
so I can take my trailer and pick them up myself.)


Make your own using 4x2 timber, 3/4" WBP ply, and fibreglass
matting.


Certainly has possibilities.


Why use fibreglass? (Expensive, and may contaminate the water with solvents.)

Make the wooden frame (old pallets), acquire some of that plastic woven
fabric fertilisers come in, use that for support, and line the thing
with thick black polythene. (But don't secure the top until it's full of
water!)
