Best water containers for truck bed?

[zimm17]

I want to keep some water containers in the front of my truck bed full time. Something low and flat that won't tumble all over the place. Can handle freezing. I was reading up on water bricks, then found reviews saying aqua bricks are better. But both are years old in coverage online. Maybe there's something newer? Anywhere from 2-5 gallons would be good, it's really for survival situations and going camping.

143 gallons? Plus I'd pop that with the ladders I carry in the bed for work. How about a 2-5 gallon plastic container that won't tip over?

don't know why amazon won't copy link today, the second one in blue comes in 5 gallon bags. Both companies have good bags.

Whatabout?

$$$.$$ VS. $$.$$

From another perspective, Jerry cans in holders are $$$. Scepters run $45 each. Most don't mind 5 gallon containers, I'd have to consider bricks for the lighter weight handling them. A carrier to keep them put and not abrading a hole in them would be appropriate. Reading up on bricks some let them freeze and they seem to put up with it.

Up to @zimm17 to decide if the $$$ is worth it. I'm just passing along a suggestion.

Personally, this is what I use for water at the campsite:



Well, full disclosure... we use the trailer water tank for flushing the toilet, brushing teeth, showering and dishes.

For drinking / making coffee we bring those 40 packs of bottled water from Costco.

I use this 5 gallon jug for rinsing out empty wine, beer and pop bottles and dousing the fires....
