5 Gallon Water Jug (w/o lid), Set of 2
These very rugged 5 gallon jugs are made of heavy duty food grade virgin polyethylene and food-safe colorant. They're highly rigid and stackable, with stabilizing moldings to prevent shifting when stacked. Vent cap for small opening is included with jug (the vent feature comes w/o hole; pierce with awl or drill bit to use).
Cap for large opening is sold separately, see accessories below. Comfortable carry handle is molded in.
Rectangular shape maximizes storage volume in available space. We greatly prefer these water jugs over larger drums which are virtually immovable after filling.
The dark blue color keeps light out, and a dark environment helps control the growth of algae.
Sold in a set of two 5-gallon jugs, with or without lids.

I received the 4- 5 gallon water containers in a few days which is great, but when I filled them up 3 of them couldn’t be tightened by hand enough to stop them from leaking.
I am older and my grip isn’t what it used to be and having to have channel locks around to take off the caps seems to be a little over the top. If I’m not around I know my wife wouldn’t be able to access the water, not a good scenario.
I've bought a lot of these over the last 10yrs. They are good quality, but the last shipment has a slightly bad fit with the caps....they are a lot harder to screw on and tighten down. PHG sells the caps seperately, and the molds for the jugs change slightly year to year..... I'm guessing they are mixing up the matching of cap and jug manufacturing dates. An included cap wrench would help.......
I ordered 10 of these last year and then 4 more this year. The new ones are a different height and will not fit under the shelf I was counting on them fitting under.
I purchased two of these water jugs to contain the purified water extracted from my Berkey Water Filter, also sold by Pleasant Hill Grain, which I also highly recommend. The jugs stack well, don't forget to order the caps as well!
Best price, fast delivery, great size and easily stackable. What else could you ask for? These are great for emergency water storage. I bought twelve, and I'll be buying more from Pleasant Hill.
I have used this water jug in the past from Pleasant Hill Grain. And have ordered more for two reasons. First is for water storage. I collect rain water for growing but my storage tank only holds 250 gallons, so I use these to store the excess water after it's filtered. The second is also for water storage of drinking water that I get from a bottled water company, thus saving money at $2.00/5 gal by using my own bottles. These are a great water jug that take up a small footprint in our storage area. Will be purchasing more soon.
Unlike the 35 and 50 gal barrels I was considering, these will fit into many locations around my house... will be ordering more in the future.
This is a great water jug. I really like the square shape. It stacks well thanks to the built-in ridge lines. It sits firmly on a table top and is easy to carry. I recommend it highly.
Liftable! Re-usable for life. Spigot attachment makes water usable for everyone. Transportable and stackable. Safe potable water Storage with no cancer causing elements. Use 100-drops of the stabilizer product and extend the life of the goodness of the water to five years.
As advertised. Especially like the tamper-evident lid, though they could be a bit less expensive. Secure stacking in upright position only. Easily transported. Would buy more if I needed additional moveable water storage.
