[[Image:Icon_jerrycan_tank.png |right|95px80px]]'''Jerrycans are light, plastic containers that are readily available and can be easily carried by one person and are readily available. When sealed, they can be used to safely store or transport urine easily and without spills. In case separated urine cannot be used near the point of production, it can be transported in a Jerrycan or tank to a central collection/storage facility or to agricultural land for application.'''

In some locations, urine has an economic value and it may be collected from the household households for free. Families who invest the time to transport and use their own urine may be rewarded with increased agricultural production , improving the families health their nutrition and/or increasing their income.
==Upgrading=Operation & Maintenance=== To minimize bacterial growth, sludge accumulation and unpleasant odours, jerrycans should be frequently washed. Because of safety concerns and transportation difficulties, no other liquids (such as blackwater or greywater) should be transported in jerrycans.
===Upgrading===
If urine is viewed as a commodity, locally run businesses may collect and transport it for free or for a small fee.
