When my van was off the road for about six weeks I kept my important jobs going by using my wife's car - a little Suzuki Sx4 hatch in which I put 4 x 25L barrels and an old shurflo backpack (18L) in the boot (so 118L total). I could have put down the rear seats and carried four more if I had to, but didn't.
The backpack was bungee strapped to a little folding sack truck. Would never use a backpack without a sack truck.
Put the backpack on the floor and filled from the 25L barrels.
Kept me going.
This is the kind of initial setup I was thinking of. 👍.
He's not in a position yet to go 'all in'.

I’ve just had a look at the link to the backpack….IMO that backpack is as good as useless for working with all day. You really don’t want to be working with a backpack ( they should be renamed😁 ) on your back. When it’s full of water it’s over 25kg, that puts a big strain on your back and neck, especially when you’re doing upstairs windows. If he must go down the backpack route he’d be better with a Gardiner style one which has a carry handle. Yes it can be heavy to carry if using without a sack truck, but at least you can put it on the ground when you’re cleaning the windows.
