The Enduraplas 7011 Gallon Dark Green Vertical Water Storage Tank is built for large-scale bulk water holding where a single tank has to carry serious volume on a stable footprint. At 7,011 gallons in polyethylene, it stands 126 inches tall on a 144 x 144 inch base - a squat, wide profile that works hard as a rural fire-water reservoir, agricultural supply, industrial process water tank, or rainwater and reuse aggregation vessel. The dark green color helps the tank blend into outdoor sites and limits light penetration, which discourages algae growth in stored water. This is a vertical storage tank engineered for stationary above-ground service, not transport.
Will it work for your site?
Start with the footprint and the loaded weight, because those two numbers decide whether your pad can carry the tank. Filled with water, this tank holds roughly 58,472 pounds of contents; rated to a 1.1 specific gravity, it carries water plus moderately denser water-based liquids up to a maximum rated contents weight of 64,319 pounds - a roughly 5,800 pound margin over plain water. That load sits on the 144 x 144 inch base, so the pad below it has to be sized and engineered for sustained bearing pressure, not just poured to look flat. Work through the loaded numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide, then review pad design against the framework in our concrete pad sizing guide before the tank arrives. At 144 inches wide and 126 inches tall, this is a wide load rather than a tall one, so confirm gate and door clearance plus your crane or forklift offload plan ahead of delivery. Because this listing does not carry a published fitting schedule, confirm exact outlet, fitting, and overflow sizes with us before you order so your plumbing runs are right the first time - call 866-418-1777.
Putting a 7,000-gallon tank into service
A tank this size rewards a disciplined commissioning. Plan a staged water fill so you can watch the pad for settlement and check every fitting for leaks before the tank is fully loaded - that hold-time approach is laid out in our hydrostatic test methodology guide. If this tank is part of a private fire-protection setup, size your reserve and draft connection deliberately; our fire-water reservoir design guide walks through NFPA 22 sizing and freeze protection for cold-climate sites. For grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate capture, our water reuse tank topology guide covers how to band quality and sequence treatment around storage of this scale.
The mistake to avoid
The single most common error with a tank of this weight is treating the pad as an afterthought. More than 64,000 pounds of loaded tank will find any soft spot, uneven grade, or under-sized slab, and a settled tank can crack fittings and stress the wall. Get the pad engineered and the loaded weight verified before delivery is scheduled, not after the freight truck is at the gate. If you are storing anything other than water or a routine water-based liquid, confirm chemical compatibility with us by phone first - this is a water storage tank.
This vertical water storage tank ships LTL from the Enduraplas plant in Converse, TX, with freight quoted live to your ZIP rather than listed here - loaded weight reaches 64,319 pounds, so have your offload method and pad readiness confirmed before scheduling. Run your delivery estimate with our Freight Cost Estimator or call us at 866-418-1777 and we will quote it for you, confirm fitting details and lead time, and help you plan delivery for a tank this size before it leaves Texas.
