Question 1

Do I have to be a Fulton County resident to attend?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this workshop is open only to Fulton County residents.

Question 2

I registered for the workshop but now I'm not able to attend.  Can I pick up my barrel another time?

Accepted Answer

No, you must attend the workshop to receive a barrel.  If you find that you are no longer able to attend, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can open your spot to someone on the wait list. No-shows (less than 24hrs notice) may be prohibited from registering for future workshops.

Question 3

Can my spouse/partner/child/roommate and I both register for the workshop?

Accepted Answer

No. Each registered attendee may bring a guest with them, but only one barrel will be provided per household.

Question 4

Will I be able to install the barrel on my own?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the installation process is fairly straightforward and most homeowners are capable of installing their barrels with the instructions provided.  We also have a step-by-step video to walk you through the process.

Question 5

Will the barrel fit in my car?

Accepted Answer

The barrels fit in most SUVs, hatchbacks, and 4-door sedans. Smaller cars may not be able to fit a barrel.  We recommend measuring to be sure your barrel will fit.  The barrels are 55-gallon barrels and are approximately 40 inches tall and 24 inches in diameter.

Question 6

Is this workshop good for children?

Accepted Answer

No. While children may attend, the workshop information is targeted to an older audience and may not be engaging for young children.

Question 7

Will we be building the barrels at the workshop?

Accepted Answer

No. We will walk you through the process and give you installation instructions and hardware to take home.  The only tool you will need at home is a drill, everything else is provided.
