What to know locally in Northern Cape
Bottled water delivery and 18.9 litre refills serve Kimberley suburbs such as Beaconsfield and Hadison Park and the townships of Galeshewe.

RO systems are popular where groundwater is brackish, for example near Upington and Springbok, and UV is added where bacteria are a worry in tanks and stock dams.
Drinking water in Northern Cape
The Northern Cape is the driest province, so drinking water is precious. Kimberley takes its water from the Vaal via Sol Plaatje's supply, while Upington depends on the Orange River, which also feeds the vineyards and date farms around Keimoes. Further from the rivers, towns such as Kuruman, Springbok and De Aar lean on boreholes and long pipelines, and groundwater can be salty or high in minerals. The iron ore mines near Kathu and Postmasburg, solar farms near Upington and farms across the Karoo all need reliable, cool drinking water in extreme heat.

- Farms, smallholdings and villages: bottles filled in town and carried home where the borehole water is too salty or hard
- Lodges, hotels, restaurants and events: full bottles collected by the lodge or guesthouse before a busy weekend
