2000 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank

The Snyder Industries 2000 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank (SII-8130000C37) is a white polyethylene vertical storage tank built for demanding liquid duty. It stands 88 inches tall on a 90-by-90-inch footprint and carries a 1.9 specific-gravity rating, so the wall is engineered for contents substantially heavier than water without exceeding its design limits.

Will it work for your liquid?

Filled with water, this tank holds 2000 gallons at roughly 16,680 pounds. The 1.9 SG rating means the sidewall is rated for a maximum contents weight of about 31,692 pounds - the headroom that separates a general-purpose water tank from one you can trust with denser fluids. For plain water, rainwater catchment, fire reserve, or irrigation supply, you have wide margin. That same 1.9 rating also makes this tank suitable for heavier liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity, so if you are storing a denser fluid such as a brine or a liquid fertilizer, confirm your product's SG against the 1.9 limit rather than assuming a water-only tank will hold. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and our Tank Sizing Guide to check capacity against your draw-down and refill cycle before you commit to a footprint.

Foundation and fittings

The flat 90-by-90-inch base needs a level, fully supporting pad - a reinforced concrete slab or an engineered compacted base sized past the tank's diameter. Size that pad for the full rated load, not just the water weight: at maximum 1.9-SG contents the base can carry up to roughly 31,692 pounds across the 90x90 footprint. A partial or settling foundation is the most common and most expensive mistake buyers make with a vertical tank this size. If a technical drawing is shown on this page, confirm the fitting and outlet layout against it; the fitting and gasket configuration is confirmed at order, so call 866-418-1777 to verify outlets, bulkheads, and gasket material for your fluid before ordering rather than assuming connections are pre-installed. For a fixed-roof atmospheric tank of this size, size the vent for both fill and draw rates - our guide on atmospheric vent capacity calculations walks through API 2000 worked examples for 1,500 to 10,000-gallon verticals.

Common uses and related configurations

As a 2000 gallon vertical tank, this Snyder unit is a workhorse for bulk water storage, agricultural supply, and rural fire-water reserve. If it is going into a private fire-protection setup, read our fire-water reservoir design guide for NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. If you are weighing footprint against ceiling height, we also publish buyer's guides for alternate 2000-gallon verticals in a 90 x 84 configuration and a taller 64 x 152 configuration - useful cross-references when this 90x90x88 layout is one of several options you are comparing.

This tank ships LTL freight from the Snyder plant in Marked Tree, Arkansas, with the exact cost quoted live to your ZIP - use the Freight Cost Estimator for your delivery number, or call 866-418-1777 to plan offload. An empty 2000-gallon vertical still needs equipment and clear access at delivery, so confirm you have a way to set it before the truck arrives.
