And collect pure rainwater with our beautiful, one
of a kind, rain harvesting systems.
Since 1998 we've been building cedar-clad, steel-banded
rain barrels (often called cisterns) and rain harvesting systems, with hand-built lids, stands
and screens. We've been dedicated to building Rain Harvesting Systems that are very attractive, efficient, and easy to maintain, and that blend well with any garden. We were a local business offering our barrel systems within and beyond the Portland - Vancouver metro area with the exception of our accessories which we also ship nationwide.
After milling the Western Red Cedar lumber down to our specifications,
we miter each stave on both edges and dado a channel
for the banding. We then hand coat each stave with high quality
semi-transparent stain and coat the lids with clear-satin
spar urethane for added protection.
By using a Rainbarrel Man rain barrel, you
help reduce water pollution! In a rain storm, oil, pesticides,
animal waste, and fertilizers from our lawns, sidewalks, driveways,
and streets are washed into sewers that often overflow into rivers,
contaminating fish and other wildlife. Your rainwater harvesting system helps prevent rain
from becoming polluted storm water and puts it to a better use
through drip irrigation.
The Rainbarrel Man Co. was headquartered in the Overlook Park neighborhood of North Portland, Oregon. The builders of our award-winning cedar-clad rain barrels were Mike Hillebrecht,
located in the Maywood Park neighborhood of NE Portland, Oregon, and Blaise Haller,
located in the Cascade Park
neighborhood of SE Vancouver, Washington.
