Rain Barrels

A rain barrel is a container that collects and holds rainwater.  The barrel is placed under the downspout of your home to collect the rainwater runoff from your roof. The bottom of the barrel has a spigot with a hose attachment so you can use the water for your garden.

  • Reduces runoff, which pollutes and strains Peel’s storm sewer system.
  • Helps conserve water.
