Description
Scrapped 1000 Gallon Propane Tank
Big tank, big possibilities. This scrapped 1000 gallon propane tank has been retired from propane service but offers an enormous amount of high-quality steel for your next major fabrication project. At $950, it’s a fraction of what you’d pay for comparable raw steel.
Key Information
- 1000 gallon former propane tank — decommissioned and no longer certified for propane use
- Massive heavy-gauge steel body ideal for large fabrication projects
- Tank has been properly scrapped and prepared for repurposing
- Expect significant cosmetic wear including rust, old paint, and surface imperfections
- Sold as-is for repurposing, recycling, or scrap — not for propane storage
- Popular for commercial-size smokers, water tanks, air receivers, and industrial art
Project Inspiration
A scrapped 1000 gallon propane tank provides enough material for truly ambitious builds. Competition-grade BBQ smokers and custom pit trailers are the most popular use, but creative fabricators have turned these tanks into wood-fired pizza ovens, outdoor hot tubs, rainwater cisterns, compressed air storage vessels, industrial planters, and even tiny house water tanks. The thick steel walls withstand heat, weather, and heavy use for decades.
Important Safety Notice
Although this tank has been scrapped and decommissioned, always take appropriate safety precautions before performing any hot work on a former propane tank. Fill the tank with water before cutting or welding to displace any residual vapors. Work in a well-ventilated area and follow all applicable welding safety protocols.
