The Bushman 3000 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank (SKU TC3000IW-NATURAL) is a polyethylene bulk vessel built for stationary above-ground water storage. It holds a nominal 3,000 gallons on a round base of roughly 95 inches in diameter and stands 107 inches tall. The SKU suffix marks it as natural (translucent) poly. Before you commit to a location, confirm your pad, any doorway, and overhead clearance against those numbers - 95 in across, 107 in high. The dimensions here are verified against launch spec, not estimated.
Will it work for your site
This is a vertical storage tank sized for non-potable water: irrigation reserves, rainwater capture, water reuse trains, and fire-water reservoir duty. The single most important planning number is weight. The tank arrives empty and light enough to set by hand equipment, but filled to 3,000 gallons of water it carries roughly 25,020 pounds in service. That in-service load - about 12.5 tons - has to sit on engineered, level ground: a compacted pad or reinforced slab rated for the full filled weight, not bare soil that can settle unevenly. Run your volume against actual daily draw before ordering; our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide walk through turning demand into the right gallon rating. For fire-protection storage, our NFPA 22 reservoir design guide covers sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection, and for grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC-condensate reuse, the water reuse topology guide lays out staged, quality-banded storage.
The mistake to avoid
The common error on a tank this size is underbuilding the foundation. A vertical poly tank must be fully supported across its entire round base; a soft or sloped pad concentrates stress on the sidewall and shortens service life. Set the pad, confirm it is dead level, and verify it carries the ~25,020 lb filled load. Plan your fitting and plumbing layout up front as well - reference the technical drawing on this page for the tank's outline and dimensions when siting your inlet, outlet, and access.
