The Enduraplas 5000 Gallon White Vertical Storage Tank (SKU THV05000W) is a 5,000-gallon polyethylene vertical storage tank built for high-volume water storage where capacity and a stable base matter. It stands 150 inches tall on a round 110-inch diameter, giving you serious volume in a single vertical tank without spreading across your site. The natural white translucent wall lets you read the liquid level at a glance, one reason this size is a workhorse for rural water, bulk holding, and fire-water reservoir duty.
Will it work for your job?
Two weights drive every decision on a tank this size. Full of water, it carries roughly 41,700 pounds of contents. The tank is rated to a 1.9 specific gravity, so its maximum rated contents weight is about 79,230 pounds, meaning it can hold liquids heavier than water. For plain water storage that 1.9 rating is comfortable headroom, but it also tells you the wall is built for real load. Run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm this 5,000-gallon vertical footprint fits your available space and daily demand before you commit.
The foundation is the mistake to avoid
At more than 20 tons of water when full, the number one mistake on a tank this size is under-building the base. A vertical storage tank needs a fully supporting, level, smooth foundation across the entire 110-inch diameter; a pad that flexes, slopes, or leaves the bottom partially unsupported puts uneven stress on the polyethylene. If you are pouring concrete, walk through the engineering in our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks so the ACI framework and the tank load line up. For private fire protection at a remote site, our fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection at this scale. See the technical drawing on this page for the full geometry.
Comparing 5,000-gallon vertical options
Height and diameter change how a 5,000-gallon vertical tank fits under a roof or inside a berm. If you are weighing this taller 150-inch build against shorter, wider tanks, our buyer's guides for the 5,000 gallon vertical liquid storage tank in a 119 x 86 configuration and a 141 x 86 configuration lay out the trade-offs so you pick the right dimensions the first time.
