The Bushman 4000 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank (SKU TC4000IC) is a large-volume, freestanding polyethylene tank built for above-ground bulk water storage. It stands 140 inches tall on a 95-inch diameter, so a full 4,000 gallons of water sits inside a roughly 8-foot-square pad space. Full, that water weighs about 33,360 pounds — the number that drives every decision about the pad and site beneath it. The dimensions shown here (140 in tall, 95 in diameter, ~33,360 lb full) are verified against the technical drawing on this page, so you can spec your pad and access against real figures. Use our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide to confirm this volume fits your draw and refill cycle.
Will it work for your site?
This is a vertical bulk water tank — rural and remote water staging, hauled-water storage, irrigation, rainwater aggregation, industrial process and reuse water, and private fire-protection reservoirs where a large standing volume is the whole point. At 4,000 gallons it lands squarely in the range covered by our 4000 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank Buyer's Guide. If this feeds a fire-water reservoir, size it against demand first — our rural fire-water reservoir design guide walks through NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. Fitting, bulkhead, and gasket configuration is confirmed per order — call 866-418-1777 to spec outlets and connections for this tank. Color and translucency are confirmed at order as well, so call to verify availability rather than assume a shade.
The pad is the part people get wrong
The most common and most expensive mistake on a tank this large is setting it on an inadequate base. A vertical poly tank needs full, continuous support across its entire 95-inch bottom — a level, load-rated pad, not gravel high spots or a partial ring. With more than 33,000 pounds bearing down when full, uneven support concentrates stress into the tank wall and undermines the whole install. Read Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks before you pour. If the tank is part of a grey-water, rainwater, or condensate reuse train, our water reuse tank topology guide covers staging multiple tanks by quality band.
Before any chemical service
This tank is specified here for water and liquid storage at specific gravity 1.0. If you intend to store anything denser or more aggressive than water, confirm the tank's resin and specific-gravity rating with us first at 866-418-1777 — do not assume a water tank is rated for a heavier liquid.
The 4000 gallon Bushman ships LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP — a tank this size and height moves as a single large freight piece, so get your freight cost with the Freight Cost Estimator or call 866-418-1777 for a quote and to confirm access at the delivery site.
