Doing your laundry
Haven’t heard of this use of rainwater? Well, you’d have to filter the rainwater first before you can use it to hand wash some of your laundry. Treat your collected rainwater with some chlorine and it’s good to go after that.

Washing your car
Completely free, you can save cost on water consumption when you use rainwater to wash your cars. According to reports, hosepipes can easily use up to an average of 35 litres per wash. So, cut back on that water usage when you wash your vehicle with rainwater. You can even use excess rainwater to wash your driveway.
