Relief Buckets covers water handling and storage items for emergency distribution: buckets with handles and lids, collapsible and rigid jerrycans, water containers for household storage, and basins and washing vessels, in food-grade plastic and supplied nested for shipment.
Buckets are among the most used items in any distribution, and the specification points that decide whether they survive are narrow. Handle attachment is where a cheap bucket fails first when it is carried full, every day; lid fit decides whether stored water stays clean, which is the whole public health point of distributing them; and whether the plastic is genuinely food grade decides whether the container is safe for drinking water at all. Nesting shape determines shipping volume and therefore a large part of the delivered cost.
Water handling items are procured in very large quantities through tenders and framework agreements by disaster management and civil defence authorities, water and sanitation departments, refugee and migration agencies, health ministries, social welfare and relief departments, non-governmental and faith-based relief organisations, and water, sanitation and hygiene programmes financed by international agencies and development banks. Bulk offers are built from the specification and include material and food-grade declarations, capacity and dimensional drawings, nested shipping volumes, sample approval, make and origin declarations and pre-shipment inspection.
Send us your capacity requirement, lid specification and quantity, and we will quote on volume with nested shipping volumes stated.
