Description
The 1189 gallon diesel fuel tank holds 4,500 litres of diesel in a double wall bunded steel vessel with the pump, hose and nozzle already fitted. It is the size most construction and mining yards settle on: enough fuel to run heavy equipment for a full work cycle, in a package that still travels on a standard flatbed. $6,750 at Propane Tank Traders.
The outer bund is part of the tank rather than an accessory. Fuel stays sealed from rain and airborne dirt, and any inner-shell failure is captured before it can reach soil or a storm drain.

Cuts Refuelling Downtime
Machines that leave the site to refuel cost more in operator hours than in fuel. With this tank staged at the yard entrance, a dozer, loader or haul truck tops up between cycles and goes back to work. The larger reserve also means fuel deliveries can be scheduled around the work rather than the other way around.
Where It Works Hardest
Construction and earthmoving sites, mining and quarry operations, large farms running multiple tractors and harvesters, commercial fleet yards, and industrial facilities with generator sets. It also suits remote and seasonal work — pipeline spreads, road crews, harvest operations — where the nearest cardlock is an hour each way.
Site Setup
Set the skid on level, compacted ground or a slab, allow hose reach to where the equipment parks, and keep the dispensing side clear of traffic. Because the containment is built in, most sites need no additional bund wall or containment pallet — check your state’s threshold for aboveground storage before finalising placement.
Freight and Delivery
Flatbed freight, unloaded by forklift or crane at the destination. We quote delivery to your ZIP once we know the site access — send the address for a delivered price.
