The Boxy 270L Water Butt is a contemporary rainwater storage solution that combines clean, minimalist styling with practical everyday performance. Designed with modern homes and gardens in mind, its simple geometric shape and smooth finish create a sophisticated appearance that complements a wide range of outdoor spaces.
With a generous 270-litre capacity, the Boxy provides ample rainwater storage for watering plants, cleaning patios, washing vehicles, and other outdoor tasks, helping you reduce mains water consumption while making the most of natural rainfall.
Contemporary Design for Modern Gardens
The Boxy water butt features a clean, architectural design that blends effortlessly into both contemporary and traditional garden settings. Its smooth, uncluttered appearance creates a refined look that sits comfortably alongside modern landscaping, rendered walls, timber fencing and outdoor living spaces.
The Boxy embraces a minimalist aesthetic, making it an attractive feature rather than something to hide away.
Its generous capacity and compact footprint make it ideal for homeowners who want substantial rainwater storage without compromising the appearance of their garden.
Integrated Planter
The Boxy 270L Water Butt is more than just a practical rainwater storage tank; it can also become an attractive feature in your garden.
Hidden beneath the removable top lid are two removable planting containers, allowing you to personalise the water butt with your choice of plants. Whether you prefer colourful seasonal flowers, fragrant herbs, low-maintenance sedums or decorative grasses, the integrated planters let you create a look that perfectly complements your outdoor space.
Use the planters to add colour and soften the clean architectural lines, or simply leave the lid on for a minimalist contemporary appearance. The removable inserts also make planting and maintenance quick and easy.
Durable Construction Built for the UK Climate
Manufactured using high-quality, UV-stabilised polyethene, the Boxy water butt is designed to provide years of reliable service.
Produced using stress-free rotational moulding, the tank offers exceptional strength and durability while resisting fading, cracking and weather damage. It is built to cope with the changing UK climate, ensuring it retains both its appearance and performance season after season.
Collecting rainwater is an environmentally friendly way to reduce water bills while providing naturally soft water that's ideal for plants.

We recommend using the 3P Filter Collector Universal to connect this water butt to your downpipe. This filter is everything you need for collecting water from your downpipe and filtering any debris before transferring the water into the tank (it also acts as an overflow when your water butt gets full).
