  • There isn't a reduction for having a water butt, unless this collects ALL of your surface water.

    If NO surface water goes into the sewer then you can get a reduction in sewerage charges.

  • I'm also with Severn Trent on a metered supply and have two 200 litre butts. I don't think there are any reductions for the butt(s). Only the savings made, if you're metered, in billed consumption and sewerage charges if the butt water is used for say, toilet flushing, car washing, garden watering!!! etc. which are what I mainly use the collected water for.
