Rain Barrel


The Rain Barrel Sale is sold out for 2023. Please check back Spring 2024 for our next annual sale.

The Rain Barrel Program is a Lafayette Consolidated Government (LCG) interdepartmental collaboration between Lafayette Utilities System (LUS) and the Environmental Quality division of Public Works (PW). The purpose of the program is to promote outdoor water conservation and sustainable stormwater management of the Bayou Vermilion Watershed.

The LUS/LCG Rain Barrel Program is designed to offer rain barrels to Lafayette Parish residents at a reduced retail cost and make them easily available for purchase during the spring season of each calendar year.         

Program Eligibility

All participants will be able to purchase barrels at the discounted contract price of $65. Residents of the City of Lafayette or the unincorporated area of Lafayette Parish are eligible to purchase one barrel at a subsidized price of $50. 

The 2023 sale is sold out. Barrels will be available to pick up at the Domingues Compost Facility on May 13. 

Before any purchase will be accepted, the LUS/LCG terms and conditions must be agreed upon. Click here to print and view the LUS/LCG terms and conditions.
