If you are starting a new family and moving into a new home, you have a lot of hard work ahead of you, and the sooner you get started the better. Organization is the key to a (relatively) stress-free move with a new baby, so advance planning will be more important than ever before. Start by marking the date of the move on your calendar, then work backwards from there.

According to the State of the Land Report 2016, Australian lot sizes are becoming smaller with time, meaning that homeowners have to get creative about their water storage options. This is why slimline tanks have become very popular for residential rainwater harvesting.

You can get slimline tanks in many sizes depending on your budget and water storage needs, and these tanks provide good quality water that can be redirected to replace your non-potable water needs.

But storage can also be extremely useful when you're moving to a home the same size as your current one, or even a considerably bigger property.
