Best Water Delivery Services

Now representing multiple water companies (Deep Rock, Hinckley Springs, Sparkletts, and Crystal Springs, among others), Primo Water North America carries an extensive selection of bottled, still, and sparkling water.

Bottled water brands include Mountain Valley, Polar Sparkling Water, Fiji, LaCroix, Sparkling Ice, and more. The company even offers purified nursery water for infants. Packaged water comes in various sizes, including cases of 24 single-serving cans or bottles or cases of 12 to 24 (0.33-1L) bottles. You can also purchase 1 and 2.5-gallon bottles for more accessible storage in the pantry or refrigerator, or a 3- or 5-gallon returnable bottle for an in-home or in-office water dispenser. 

If you are creating an at-home setup for yourself for the first time, a local route sales representative will come to your home or office and install your bottled water cooler based on the preferred delivery date and window of time.

After the initial installation, your rep will deliver your water every two weeks. If you aren’t home, leave your empty bottles in a designated spot, and your rep will swap out the empties for full bottles. Subscription services can be canceled at any time.

One benefit of being a Costco member is water delivery with exclusive prices. To sign up for delivery, choose between a 3- or 5-gallon bottle of spring or purified water, add on a water dispenser (both hot and cold are available), and set up your delivery schedule for your home or office.

You can choose the quantity, start date, and delivery frequency and make adjustments at any time.

Prices for Costco’s water start at under $7 per bottle but keep in mind, there may be a minimum purchase per delivery. You will also need your Costco member ID number to sign up. 

There is no water delivery service provided for cases of individual water bottles or sparkling water.

While it may not be the first place you think of when it comes to a water delivery service, Target is a solid option.

You go to the website, add the bottled water of your choice to your shopping cart, and follow the prompts for home delivery provided by Shipt's same-day delivery service. (Note: there is a minimum $35 purchase to use the delivery service.) 

If you join Shipt as a member, delivery is free. Otherwise, there is about a $10 delivery fee. If you plan to order frequently (more than 10 times per year), the annual Shipt membership costs approximately $99 and pays for itself. Not sure you want to commit to the membership? You can sign up for a free, four-week trial and cancel at any time.

Target's selection includes various well-known brands such as Fiji, Poland Spring, Evian, LIFEWTR, Hint, and much more.

Culligan is recognized as an industry leader in water delivery and is more than just a delivery service. The company employs certified water experts who provide a high level of customer service and resources to make sure you are drinking the cleanest, best-tasting water possible. 

Culligan offers water delivery to your house or business, which can be customized in terms of quantity, frequency, and delivery schedule. Product availability may vary regionally; however, spring water, distilled water, and pure drinking water in various sizes are all generally available.

Or, you can forego bottles altogether and choose to install a filtration system to get clean water straight out of your tap. The company also offers a bottle-free cooler connected directly to your water line but in a stand-alone format. 

To start delivery, you will be given information about your nearest regional dealer or representative and can go from there. Should you have any issues with your water filtration system, Culligan has excellent customer service and offers a mobile service team to provide maintenance and checkups. These techs can even repair and maintain some non-Culligan systems. 

Wondering if getting a water filtration system is worth the cost? Culligan has an online savings calculator to help you determine your potential savings from softening your water with their systems. Lastly, Culligan offers a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee and will provide a full refund within 30 days if you aren't happy with its products or services.

Founded by Jaden Smith, JUST Water is a mission-driven, B Corp certified company committed to giving back more than it takes. JUST Water provides boxed, natural, still, spring water that is sustainably sourced from Glens Falls, New York. 

Due to the water's high pH, it is naturally alkaline and has unique mineral content. It is packaged in a recyclable carton made out of paper from Forest Stewardship Council-certified forests and plant-based plastic that maintains the water's pure taste. The carton's wide neck also makes it easy to refill, so it can serve as a reusable bottle before you recycle it.

The company's products contain zero artificial flavors, preservatives, sweeteners, and calories. If flavored water is your jam, JUST Water has a line of fruit-infused waters: natural spring water infused with natural fruit flavors. These come in lemon, huckleberry, coconut mint, orange, watermelon, cucumber, and lime flavor and are packaged in brightly colored cartons that correspond with each flavor.

Delivery service is offered with free shipping. Choose from a one-time order, or sign up for a monthly subscription and get a 15 percent discount.

Offering delivery service for a variety of well-known brands. ReadyRefresh features spring and sparkling water (both plain and flavored) and large bottles for water dispensers.

The company also sells widely recognized brands, including San Pellegrino, Perrier, and Acqua Panna. Bottles for all brands come in various sizes, including cases of six to 24 individual cans or bottles and large bottles ranging from 1 to 5 gallons. Most come in cases of both glass and plastic bottles.

If you sign up for 3- or 5-gallon bottles designed for water coolers, the empties will be picked up at every delivery. And, if you are interested in trying a water dispenser but might not want it forever, you can rent one from ReadyRefresh for a small, monthly fee with an option to buy at a later date. 

To minimize waste and environmental impact, the bottles are washed, sanitized, re-used as many times as possible, and eventually recycled. The company states that most containers produced by ReadyRefresh are made from recycled plastic and are BPA-free (more information is available in the FAQ section of the website).

Once you sign up for delivery, you can access your schedule online and modify the quantity or types of products at any time, skip a delivery, or even add an extra one for more products. Want to arrange delivery for yourself and a family member who lives elsewhere? No problem. You can easily have separate orders delivered to different addresses. 

Launched in 2014, Open Water claims to be the first company to use 100 percent recyclable aluminum bottles and cans to contain its water to reduce plastic use.

The company went with aluminum because it is the most accessible material to recycle most efficiently and, unlike plastic, can be recycled an infinite number of times. A percentage of each sale goes to repairing damage from plastic pollution.

The product line is simple and basic and includes still water (16-ounce bottles and 16- or 12-ounce cans) and sparkling water (16-ounce and 12-ounce options in bottle and cans). Unlike many other major brands, the sparkling water is not shipped from Europe. Instead, it's made in the U.S. to be as sustainable as possible and cut down on shipping emissions.

Open Water is available in select retail outlets around the country. However, online ordering for home delivery is easy and straightforward. You can also save up to 28 percent by signing up for a subscription.
