Water is a must at the office. Water delivery services are an ideal option to ensure you always have a fresh supply of water. In addition, having your water delivered means you won’t have to worry about installing a filtration system. Most companies who offer water delivery to offices have a variety of options to suit different needs—whether you have a large office or a small one, or you prefer bottled water or a water cooler, you should be able to find the right fit.
Companies that offer water delivery include Costco, Fiji Water, and Culligan, among others. Each provider offers options to everyone from suit small business owners to large corporations.
The goal of bulk water delivery is to reduce the amount of money you have to spend on drinking water. It’s also convenient. Finally, if you decide to select a three- or five-gallon water cooler, you will help to reduce waste by using fewer plastic water bottles.
How to Choose an Office Water Delivery Service
When it comes to companies that provide this service, you will want to look for a few different elements. Be sure to check where each company delivers, the volume they can deliver, the bottle or jug type, how often they deliver, and any other amenities they provide. It’s important to consider your company’s unique in-office needs before you select your provider. Here are some things to think about as you go about selecting a water delivery service.
Amenities
Water coolers and dispensers are crucial if you hope to use water jugs that hold up to five gallons of water. Many companies provide a cooler or dispenser free when you sign a contract. Others require you to pay to rent the cooler or dispenser separately. Some companies allow you to pay off the cooler a little bit each month. Decide whether you prefer to rent or purchase your own cooler, and see which companies allow for this option.
Size of Water Bottles/Jugs
The next thing to consider is what size of bottle or jug you would like. Individual drinking bottles are less likely to be offered by water delivery companies, since they create more waste. But if you prefer water bottles, you may be able to order them in sizes up to one liter. Most companies offer jugs ranging between one to five gallons in size.
Delivery and Subscription
Finally, consider how often the company is willing to deliver and what your water needs are. If they offer weekly deliveries, you won’t need to order as much as you would for a monthly delivery. Some companies only deliver every six months, which means fewer disruptions. However, with longer gaps between deliveries it may be harder to gauge how much water you need.
Subscriptions
Finally, look into how the company allows you to pay for your water. Some companies allow you to pay for a year’s worth of water at once, while others prefer for you to pay a monthly fee or a fee per jug. Choose the subscription that suits your needs and budget.
