A mobile storage and dispensing device for the irrigation conduit is provided and includes a reel rotatably mounted on a frame structure for carrying the irrigation conduit. A drive unit is provided for rotating the reel along with controls for determining the direction of rotation of the reel. Coupling elements are connected to the reel for receiving coupling ends of the irrigation conduit. Also provided is a traversable irrigation conduit guide connected to the frame structure for allowing the irrigation conduit to be wound evenly about a receiving zone of the reel. Further, spaced apart transverse bars are attached to the frame structure for substantially flattening and removing water from the irrigation conduit as it is wound on the reel.
