The Bushman 130 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank (SKU TC2376IW-BLACK) is a narrow-footprint polyethylene tank for water storage where floor space is tight. At 76 inches tall on a 23 x 23 inch footprint, it holds 130 gallons in a slim vertical profile that fits utility rooms, equipment sheds, well houses, and against-the-wall installs where a wider tank simply will not go. Its dark exterior helps block light transmission, which discourages algae growth in stored water. Dimensions on this listing are verified.
Will it work for your site?
Plan around three numbers before you buy. Full, this tank carries roughly 1,084 pounds of water on a 23 x 23 inch footprint, so the pad or floor underneath has to be flat, level, and rated to carry that load across a small contact area. Point loading matters more here than on a squat tank: concentrate over 1,000 pounds on 529 square inches and a marginal surface will settle or crack. Confirm your overhead clearance too — at 76 inches tall, the tank needs headroom for the lid and any top plumbing you add. One honest note on fittings: lid size, inlet, outlet, and vent configuration are not specified on this listing, so confirm the plumbing you need by phone at 866-418-1777 before you design your connections. If you are still deciding on volume, run your daily draw and reserve days through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide so you size to demand rather than to the shelf.
Freight — how it ships
This vertical water storage tank ships LTL freight on a pallet, not by parcel carrier. Freight is quoted separately to your ZIP and is never included in the list price. Because it is a tall, single-tank load, delivery is typically curbside on a liftgate truck — have a plan to move roughly a 76-inch tank from the truck to its pad. Get your exact number in seconds with the Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it by phone.
The mistake to avoid
The most common miss on a tall vertical tank is skipping the pad. A 130-gallon vertical tank full of water is top-heavy relative to its base, and any tilt from an uneven surface gets amplified over 76 inches of height — that stresses the fitting bosses and, in the worst case, walks the tank. Set it on a full, continuous, level foundation sized for the load. For above-ground installs, the pad-design framework in our concrete pad sizing guide walks through getting the base right, and once it is set, the hydrostatic test methodology covers how to fill, watch for settlement, and check fittings before you put the tank in service.
