Looking for water tank on wheels.
 
I recently saw a nice watering tank on wheels in the garden section of a
supermarket in an out of town city. My wife has been watering plants from
5-gallon buckets moved in a wheelbarrow. I think she deserves better
equipment, but I have not been able to find a source for this kind of
equipment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

If you really cared for your wife you'd buy her a hose pipe.

Her gall. can weighs 50 lbs where as the bowsers that I know hold around 40
galls.......40 X 10lbs = 400lbs, also it's not so easy lifting water from
nearer the bottom of the bin.#Otherwise get her a 4 wheeled truck to take
several 5 gall cans in one go.

Even though you still use the old 'Queen Ann' gallon of 231cubic inches
compared with the UK's Imperial gallon of 277.4194 cubic inches it is still
too much for a wife to manage easily. Get either a whip or stronger wife!!
Unless you can afford a hose as David wisely suggests, of course!! All water
carts are hard work.
Best Wishes.

There are those that come on wheels are made to be pulled by lawn tractors.
Take a look in any farm supply. Be warned, they can be quite pricey.
