Norwesco's 2000 gallon vertical liquid storage tank stands 152" tall on a 64" diameter footprint, giving you 2,000 gallons in a compact ground-area while running tall and narrow. It's a natural white polyethylene vertical storage tank rated to 1.5 specific gravity, which is the spec that tells you what it can actually hold safely. Filled with plain water (SG 1.0) the contents weigh about 16,680 lb, and the 1.5 SG rating means it's engineered to carry contents up to roughly 25,020 lb. That headroom is why this Norwesco vertical tank handles dense liquids, not just water, without overstressing the wall.
Will it work for your application?
Size it by both volume and weight. At 2,000 gallons you have the capacity; the 1.5 SG rating is what determines whether your specific liquid is in bounds. Take the weight per gallon of what you're storing, multiply by 2,000, and confirm it stays at or under the 25,020 lb maximum rated contents. Water and most water-based fluids sit comfortably inside that limit. If you're weighing this against the wider, lower 90" x 84" or 93" x 80" builds of the 2000 gallon tank, the difference is footprint versus height: this 64" x 152" tank trades a wider base for a taller, narrower stance, which matters when floor space is tight but vertical clearance isn't. Run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and check the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit. Fitting locations, the lid, and exact dimensions are detailed on the technical drawing on this page.
Plan the install and the offload
Plan for the 64-inch diameter base plus access clearance, and confirm 152 inches (12'8") of vertical clearance at the install site — including any dome and fill access that sits above the 152-inch nominal tank height. Before you schedule offload equipment, confirm the tank's empty weight on the technical drawing so you bring the right forklift or crane to the delivery.
How it ships
This tank ships LTL freight. Norwesco builds it at multiple plants, so it leaves from whichever is nearest you: Hanford, CA serves the West; Griffin, GA the Southeast; Lancaster, OH the Midwest and East; and St. Bonifacius, MN the Upper Midwest. Shipping from the closest plant keeps freight cost and transit time down. Freight is quoted live to your ZIP code, so you see the real number before you buy.
The mistake to avoid
Don't fill this tank to volume without checking weight. The 2,000 gallon number is only half the story: the 1.5 SG rating is the limit that protects the tank wall. Storing a liquid heavier than 1.5 specific gravity exceeds the 25,020 lb design point and is the most common way these tanks get overloaded. Match your liquid's specific gravity to the rating first, every time. For deeper detail, compare the footprint options in the buyer's guides for this tall 64" x 152" build versus the wider 90" x 84" and 93" x 80" versions.
