The Enduraplas 5000 Gallon Green Vertical Storage Tank (SKU THV05000G) is a polyethylene vertical storage tank built for high-volume water and bulk liquid storage. It stands 150 inches tall on a 110 x 110 inch square footprint, holds 5,000 gallons, and is molded in green for outdoor service. This is a large vertical tank meant for a permanent, engineered installation rather than a portable setup.

Will this tank work for your site?
Check the physical realities before you order. Full of water, the tank plus contents reaches roughly 41,700 pounds, and its 1.9 specific gravity rating allows a maximum rated contents weight of about 79,230 pounds for denser liquids. That load rides on a 110 x 110 inch (12,100 square inch) footprint, so at the maximum rated contents weight the pad carries roughly 6.5 psi of average bearing pressure. Hand that number to your pad engineer rather than guessing. If you have not sized the base yet, our Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks guide walks through the ACI framework for a tank this size. Confirm outlet size and position from the technical drawing on this page before you plumb it. Not sure a 5,000 gallon vertical tank is the right capacity for your draw and refill cycle? Run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator or read the Tank Sizing Guide first.
Common uses and matching the tank to the job
The green color suits outdoor water service, which makes this vertical storage tank a common choice for rural and remote water supply, including fire-water reservoirs. If that is your application, the Fire-Water Reservoir Tank Design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection that matter for a tank left standing outdoors. For grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate collection, the Industrial Water Reuse Tank Topology guide shows how a bulk vertical tank fits into a larger storage train.
The mistake to avoid
The single biggest error on a tank this large is treating the 1.9 specific gravity rating as free headroom without doing the weight math. That rating means the tank wall is built to hold liquids up to 1.9 SG, but it does not lighten the load your foundation sees. At full water alone you are already near 41,700 pounds; push toward the 79,230 pound maximum rated contents weight and the pad, anchoring, and site drainage all have to be engineered for it. Size the base for the actual liquid you are storing, not for water, before the tank is delivered.
