Choosing the Best Water Delivery Services
For many, the turn of a tap or the switch of a valve brings the steady, constant flow of water to be used for everyday essentials—cooking, cleaning, hygiene—you name it and water is there. Why, then, might some consider using water delivery services? Believe it or not, unless one is drinking filtered water, they stand the risk of consuming toxins and contaminants that may lead to serious illnesses. Bottled water emerges as a viable alternative to getting water that’s safe to use, whatever your needs are.
The truth of the matter is that despite how easily accessible water may seem, there exists very real concerns over the potability of water for families everywhere and its role in maintaining their health and safety, especially when it comes to getting it straight from the tap. With the convenience of having it delivered straight to your door then, there’s little to no reason why you should ever have to think twice about your water source again!
How to choose the best delivery service?
When choosing a home water delivery service, there are a few things that you need to consider. Calculate your water consumption so that you know how much water you should be delivered and how often.
Don’t jump on the cheapest service that you can find without first assessing it because you might end up getting ripped off instead. Because the safety of your family is the most important thing to consider, it is also important to take note of the quality of their water. Find out how the purification process works and if the company can meet the sanitation standards and that they have a license to operate1. This way, you are guaranteed that the water you will be drinking is safe.
FIJI Water
Fiji Water’s focus is on keeping you stocked in its popular product. Monthly subscriptions can lower the cost of getting a steady supply of Fiji bottled water. Fiji sells its premium artesian water in bottles of four capacities: 330 milliliters, 500 milliliters, 1 liter, and 1.5 liters2. The 330-milliliter bottles come in a pack of 36, while the 500-milliliter bottles come in a pack of 24. Both the 1-liter and 1.5-liter bottles are packed in cases by the dozen. The first step in ordering Fiji water is selecting one of the four capacities and choosing how many packs you need.
Culligan
Culligan’s water delivery service is one of the most well known nationally. It offers five types of water: filtered, spring, demineralized, distilled or reverse osmosis3. Culligan emphasizes customer service as much as water quality. One of their water experts will meet with you and help you select the best type of water for your office or workspace. This expertise differentiates Culligan’s services from other water delivery companies.
ReadyRefresh
ReadyRefresh, a merging of former services such as Arrowhead Direct and Poland Spring Direct, is a water delivery service for Nestle brands, including Poland Spring. In addition to regular drinking water, you can get flavored, sparkling and mineral water delivered to your office or home. ReadyRefresh has a decent water selection within the Nestle umbrella and an easy online ordering process.
Absopure
Absopure delivers a wide variety of bottled water products to homes throughout the Midwest. With their reliable and convenient home delivery service, homeowners get easy access to refreshing all-natural spring water and top-of-the-line equipment.
Costco Water Delivery
Costco Water uses spillproof water bottles that don’t leak, even when turned upside down in a cooler. It also offers plans with special bottom-load dispensers fitted to its 5-gallon bottles. However, each water cooler increases the cost of the plan. While coolers incur additional fees, Costco Water gives members two free half-liter cases or four sleeves of cups (100 cups per sleeve) with the first delivery4.
Diamond Springs
Diamond Springs delivers water to homes and workplaces in Central Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. It offers neighborhood spring water besides other water types, hardware and office lounge supplies.

There are many benefits that you can get from choosing to sign up for a home water delivery service. The first on the list is of course for health reasons. You can be sure that you have safe water in your home that you can use for drinking and cooking. You can also save up on trips to the supermarket because the commodity is brought straight to your home. The water bottles are also recyclable so you can save up on the additional costs on disposable water bottles as well.
