The 400 foot deep well at RV Pit Stop on 425 N. Central in Quartzite at https://www.mapquest.com/us/az/quartzsite-282027611nhasngreatwater for 25 cents for 5 gallons, and $2 a minute to fill those tanks larger than 5 gallons on RVs.  :heart:

How does one qualify for that excellent rate?

And do you carry that 850 lbs around with you, or offload it at camp?

Link to a thread with the details would be ideal so as not to derail. . .

I do what ever it takes. the trip from the RV Pit stop to RTR is only a few miles. I would only transport that much water for long distances off road if absolutely necessary. I can always find prospecting water in the desert. highdesertranger

I was hoping for some cool tank tech that allows for offloading

 

[highdesertranger]

no I have 2 of the 30 gallon poly barrels, a 25 gallon RV tank, a 5 gallon igloo water dispenser, and a 5 gallon jug. actually that is 95 gallons but I tell them 100 just to round it off as I always spill some while filling. highdesertranger

Ya I was thinking of designing an underfloor space to fit say 20 robust 5-gal squarish / stackable tanks.

Rather than having to pump out to lighten up (requires another big tank),

be able to just "unpack" some or all the water-cubes to the site, then

travel from there with a much lighter load.

Same with propane, I got a 4' x 20" 80-gal ACME tank real cheap, I could use, but

now thinking a bunch of 20# BBQs in a similar setup would give a lot more flexibility, probably get a decent price back for the big tank if I was patient.
