I have a trolley and am thinking of getting a backpack for awkward one here one there jobs but can't think how I can possibly fill it without taking the trolley out of the car and filling it from that which would make it a waste of time

Water barrels with pure water in.
Lift up barrel and pour water into backpack.
It really is that easy.  :D

Some people will tell you that you need a city & guilds certificate. :-X
But with hard work and perseverance it is possible to learn the technique "on the job". ;D

Be carefull when using 25 ltr barrels to fill from as Under The general working guidelines no man should attempt to lift anything above 25 kg's .

If your female then no heavier than 16kg's .

H&S will have you for filling a back pack. One needs to have a Risk assessment in 6 identical copies hand writen.

Get a 12v submersible pump from ebay to fill the backpack from the barrels or tank. makes it so much easier. can be run off the cigarette lighter socket if you want.

Fill it before you go to work, if it's for occasional use. One fill might last you a day.
If you're struggling for space in the car, save your money, take another barrel of water and just get the trolley out.

Saying that, whats wrong with picking a barrel up and decanting it into the backpack without a submersible pump?
