Portable drinking water stations
Central Coast Council offers a range of portable drinking water stations available for hire by the local community. These stations provide free access to clean tap water at public events, helping to keep attendees hydrated while promoting sustainability.
Two styles available:
- Bottle refill stations – Ideal for refilling reusable bottles, reducing single-use plastic waste.
- Bubbler stations – Traditional drinking fountains for quick access to water.
Access to an outdoor tap is required. Multiple units can be connected to a single tap, making them suitable for larger events. Drinking water stations are compact and can fit laid down on the back seat of most vehicles. For multiple station hire, a station wagon, utility of trailer may be required for transportation.
