A neighbour-reported board of what the private basics — trucked water, a drinking-water jug, a gas cylinder — actually cost in Beirut right now.
About these tools
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Beirut and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.

Trucked water, a drinking-water jug, a cooking-gas cylinder — the private basics that keep a Beirut home running have no official price, and what you pay swings by area, by vendor, and by the week.
Sign in and add what you last paid. The board shows the neighbourhood median once a few reports come in, so everyone can see the going rate — and no single number can throw it off.
Trucked water
per per 1,000 L delivered · A full delivery, priced per 1,000 litres (a 2,000 L tank is about double)
These are prices neighbours report paying — not official prices, and not advice on where to buy. Anyone can read the board; reporting a price takes a free account, which keeps it honest. We show the median of recent reports once at least 3 people have reported an item, so no single number sets the figure. A report ages off after about 45 days, so the board stays current on its own.
These are neighbours' own reports of what they paid recently — not official prices, not a directory of where to buy, and not advice on what is fair. What you pay for trucked water especially swings by area, vendor and the day; the board shows the median of recent reports once a few arrive, so one bad number can't move it.
