The single serve bottled water industry has exploded to near ubiquitous status over the last ten years. This extreme growth is mostly fueled by fears over the quality of local tap water across America. A study done in 2003 of tap water in 19 US cities showed that the water quality in five was graded poor and eight more were only marked as being fair. This is even more unsettling for children, pregnant women or those with compromised immune systems that may be at higher risk for illnesses from contaminates. While deemed more trustworthy by consumers, the waste and cost of these individual bottles of water have their own share of concerns. After looking at the options, it becomes clear why using a water delivery service to supply your home and office with filtered bottled water dispensers makes the most sense.
Using filtered water rather adding to mountains of plastic waste when buying all those bottles is the environmentally responsible choice. It is estimated that 1.5 million ons of plastic is used each and every year to make those plastic water bottles. In one year alone a million tons of those bottles ended up back in U.S. trash bins. Each glass of filtered water from a water cooler or dispenser is mere pennies compared to single serve bottled water without harming the environment. By keeping a reusable bottle or thermos you don’t lose any of the convenience either!
It is simple to find a local water delivery service to bring this crisp, delicious filtered bottled water to the door of your home or office, hassle free. Ask your friends and neighbors who they use for their delivery and compare from there. Consider the water dispenser options, do they also deliver any needed supplies, what their delivery schedules are and of course what the quality of their water is. Most companies will offer a free quote on their services or a free trial in your business office. Using a local company over the national brands often will save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars in the long run while also providing higher quality customer service. When you are going over the options of water coolers, stands, dispensers or point of use systems you should also have the option to lease or buy your equipment. Leasing is an attractive option as you have the added stress relief knowing that all maintenance and repairs are taken care of by the company. With a bit of research it is easy to see why using a water delivery service is far more sensible across the board and well worth breaking the bottled water habit.
