The Norwesco 2000 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank (SKU N-44125) stands 84 inches tall on a 90-inch diameter footprint, holding 2,000 gallons of water or other liquid in natural white polyethylene. It carries a 1.5 specific gravity rating, which means the tank wall is engineered to handle contents up to 1.5 times the weight of water - filled with plain water it carries roughly 16,680 pounds, and at its maximum rated content density it is built for up to 25,020 pounds. If you have been searching for a Norwesco vertical storage tank in the 2000-gallon range, this is the wider, shorter profile (90" diameter by 84" tall) rather than the taller, narrower versions of the same capacity.
Will it work for your site
The squat 90-inch diameter by 84-inch height geometry is the version to choose when you have headroom limits or want a lower center of gravity for stability. Confirm the 90-inch diameter clears your pad and any doorway or gate on the delivery path before ordering - the footprint measures 90.0 inches across at the base. The 1.5 specific gravity rating gives you margin for liquids heavier than water, but match the rating to your actual fluid: plain water sits at 1.0, so you have headroom there, and 1.5 is Norwesco's heaviest standard rating - the ceiling for this tank. See the technical drawing on this page for fitting locations and exact dimensions, and confirm the standard Norwesco fitting and gasket package against your own plumbing before you order. If you are unsure which capacity and dimension combination fits your space, the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide walk through clearance, footprint, and fill-weight planning.
Freight and delivery
This tank ships LTL freight from the Norwesco plant in Washougal, WA - the named production point for this model. Because the empty tank is large and heavy, it moves as freight rather than parcel, and the cost depends on your delivery ZIP and site accessibility.

The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this size is treating the 1.5 specific gravity rating as a license to store any liquid. The rating is about the weight the tank wall can hold, not chemical resistance - it tells you the contents can be up to 1.5 times the density of water, but it does not certify the polyethylene against any particular chemical. For plain water and similar liquids this tank is well within its design margin. If your fluid is denser than 1.5 specific gravity, or needs verified chemical resistance, call 866-418-1777 before ordering rather than assuming this rating covers it. The second mistake is staging delivery without confirming the 90-inch diameter fits your final placement and the path to it; an 84-inch-tall, 90-inch-wide tank does not turn corners easily. Measure twice.
