How do you filter the water and transfer to your van?

why would you want to take a pic of your drain pipe going into you ibc tank and post it on the internet is a more appropriate question?

Nice one!

Well done for finding the black tanks.. they're more difficult to come by..

You'll find you get a lot of debris from the roof, so you might want to filter it before your DI..

Hi
I really like the black tanks, I used to have some but they were clear.
Where did you get them from I bet they would look really cool signwritten?
Do you have a trolley that goes underneath them so you can tow them around to your customers?
Thanks for your help/advice.

Ok clever clogs. What would you do if you were either on a meter or there was a hosepipe ban?

I use rainwater, I have 4 IBC's feeding from a large building.  I have never run out.  Ample supply for my needs. If you've got the space it works well.
