i se a 1000 litre upright tank and a 400 litre upright tank to save room.  a normal ibc tank wastes space.  i know somepeople who put a bit of tfr in their tank so it mixes with the water so you get a better clean!! :-*

got a hot tip off sum 1,  because salt is used to kill weeds instead of sodium chlorate this guy pours a bag of salt into his ibc and cleans the drive with it, cos of salt water it kills any remaining roots under blocks.  sea water might do just fill your tank via a dock.  but rinse machine out after with cold fresh!! ???

some guy that was jet washing, he swears that salt kills weeds and he was on a water meter so he dipped his syphon hose into the docks and drew water out from there to save money.

he uses the custies outside water tap with his hoselock spray fan connector on!  :D

custies are being more contious about us using there water in the recession. i keep getting asked do i bring my own water. ::)

have you got any docks to draw water from mark?  if your on a water meter at home its the perfect answer.
