Storage
As a liquid resource, the Water canister does not stack in inventories (1 per slot) except in the dedicated slot of Fire Engines (30 per slot). It can be stored in the stockpiles of Bases (32k max), Small Liquid Container Cars (50), Liquid Containers (100), Liquid Transfer Stations (500), and Rooster - Lamploader Trailer (25). It cannot be submitted into a stockpile if the canister is not full.
When a canister is full, it can be crated (need stack of 1 per crate) and uncrated with the right click context menu while interfacing a Seaport, Storage Depot, or Shipping Container.
Crates of Water can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content.The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depots (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Seaports (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots, but is most commonly transported by Fuel Tankers, Small Liquid Container Cars, and shipping vehicles carrying Liquid Containers. The liquid can also be delivered by Pipelines. Delivering it in crate form is possible but much less efficient.
Tips
Water is the only way to put out fires, so it is very important to have a ton of water stockpiled at the frontlines in case a fire breaks out.
