The Enduraplas 6000 Gallon White Vertical Storage Tank (SKU THV06000W) is a 6,000-gallon polyethylene vertical storage tank for high-volume water storage where one large footprint beats a cluster of smaller units. It stands 179 inches tall on a 110 x 110 inch base, so plan your site for both the overhead clearance during fill and the square footprint underneath. It is molded in natural white polyethylene.
Will it work for your site?
At a glance: height 179 in / base 110 x 110 in / footprint 110 x 110 in. Check your door and overhead clearance and your pad dimensions against those numbers before you commit. This vertical tank carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, meaning the wall is structurally rated for contents heavier than water. For plain water service that is generous headroom: filled with water at roughly 8.34 lb per gallon, the tank holds about 50,040 pounds of contents, which sits well inside the ~95,076-pound envelope the 1.9 SG wall is built to. The 95,076-pound figure is the structural ceiling, not a fill target for water. Those weights drive your foundation, so a tank this size belongs on a level, continuously supported pad, never on soil or timber cribbing. Our concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI framework for above-ground poly tanks at this weight. If you are still deciding between one 6,000-gallon vertical and a bank of smaller tanks, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide.
Common applications
At 6,000 gallons this white vertical storage tank suits bulk water reserves, rural and remote fire-water reservoirs, and industrial water reuse trains. For fire protection sizing, see our fire-water reservoir design guide; for grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate aggregation, our industrial water reuse topology guide covers quality-banded storage.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this large is under-building the foundation. A pad that is slightly out of level, or that does not fully support the base, creates point loading in the tank floor and shortens its life. Confirm your pad is flat and full-contact before the first fill, and refer to the technical drawing on this page for exact dimensions and fitting locations before you set your plumbing.
This white vertical storage tank ships LTL freight from the Enduraplas plant in Neche, North Dakota, quoted live to your ZIP. Filled water weight lands near 50,040 pounds, so this is a heavy, flatbed-class delivery that needs offload equipment on site.
