Grey water from washing machine

in aus.gardens: Then you see other neighbours just wasting it, how they like. Aaaarrrggghhhh. Funny thing though the water bill is not much lower. I think Sydney Water keeps bumping up the price without telling us. :-) Katherine If you look at your water bill you will probably find the cost of water is the smallest part of it. $115 of my bill is a water sevice and sewerage charge the water costs less than $40. and at $1.20 per thousand litres any saving is marginal even though it has recently gone up from under $1 per Kl At that rate my 5000 litre tanks (2500 x 2) hold $6 worth of water which makes the approx $1500 cost seem ludicrous. I can't really save water on the garden because I never watered it before (a brown lawn never needs mowing) but I use the water to wash the car and our clothes. From a purely financial point of view water tanks make no sense at all however from a moral and environmental standpoint...
