The city has a nice selection of rain barrels of various prices. Recently they added some new options including a very affordable $42 model.
The City of Raleigh Solid Waste Services Department has now a new rain barrel option available for sale to residents at a discounted price. Raleigh owned company Rain Water Solutions is offering its 65 gallon rain barrel normally selling for $149, for $87 plus tax ($92.87). The rain barrel is manufactured from 100% recycled plastic resin in Smithfield, NC. Complete information on it can be found on our web page noted at the bottom of this email.

when you install one of those rain barrels be careful of the overflow - I found it to be on the small side allowing water to overflow out the top - In digging around I came to http://www.aquabarrel.com - they have a huge over flow port and I was able to buy just that part to install on my other barrel - now I have the best of both - an inexpensive rain barrel AND an overflow port that really works!
