Keep your showers to four minutes. ...(you will be surprised that 4 minutes really is enough time!)
Wait until your dishwasher or washing machine is fully loaded before you turn it on.
Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth or shave.
Wash your veggies and rinse dishes in a plugged sink or basin – not under a running tap.
Easy ways to save water in your garden
Use a broom or rake rather than a hose to clean your driveways and hard surfaces.
Plant for the climate and soil in your area - there is loads of information on the Internet, or speak to us about the right choices for your yard.
Apply 7 - 10 cm of mulch around plants to help save water lost through evaporation.
Get rid of weeds as they take water away from the plants you want to grow.
Group plants with similar needs so they all get the right amount of water without wasting any.
