Most people ( especially in urban areas ) do not have access to fresh water if infrastructure goes down. I'm fortunate enough to have a few fresh water springs on property and near by. I just read an article that may be helpful to others.
Most of us drink milk and then throw away the jugs. This article simply states, instead of throwing the jugs away, to wash them thoroughly and store them in trash bags (preferably double bagged) under your house until needed. Then they are readily available and clean for use. It also stated that they shouldn't be stored in the attic as heat and temperature fluctuations may possibly release toxins in the plastic.
