From reading your business name I'm presuming you just do trad. If this is so then why would you want a transfer hose? Are you giving your new custies a goldfish as an incentive lol. ;D

Point taken. I have the same problem as you. At the moment I use 1.5 inch hose to transfer my water but find hose is too big and heavy to lug to and from my van etc.

how long is the transfer hose ?
These fittings are really good, and someone suggested doing this a while back,

http://www.easywatering.co.uk/acatalog/Geka_Hose_End_Coupling_1_.html

you can cut your hose to manageable and easily stored lengths and then connect them together with these fittings when needed

How about one of these. You can get 80 meters of 1 inch hose on it.  I was in the same situation end terrace road parking. Got this and it worked a treat, however I've moved now so it's been made redundant as microbore just looks silly on it.

Yep, 1 Inch in and out geka fittings.  I bought it this time last year and then moved house in March. Shame as it really made a pain of a job an awful lot easier.

The lawn is new thanks.
