The Norwesco 1025 gallon horizontal leg tank is a polyethylene haul-and-store tank built for mobile fertilizer, water, and field-transfer work where the load rides on a trailer or skid. Molded by Norwesco in heavy-duty polyethylene, the contoured leg base lets the tank sit stable on a flat deck without a full cradle, which is why operators searching for a horizontal leg tank or a Norwesco horizontal tank keep coming back to this size: 1,025 gallons is enough to make a field run worthwhile without overloading a light trailer.
Will it work for your setup?
Capacity is 1,025 gallons of polyethylene-stored product. Plan your rig around full weight, not empty: filled with water this tank carries roughly 8,548 lb of liquid alone, before you add the tank, the trailer, and any plumbing. That number climbs further with fertilizer or any product heavier than water, so confirm your trailer axle rating and tongue weight against the loaded figure rather than the gallon count. If you are deciding between this and a smaller or larger size, run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide so the tank matches both your application rate and what your equipment can legally and safely haul.
Mounting, transport, and the mistake to avoid
The most common mistake with a horizontal leg tank this size is treating it like a stationary tank. On the road, the rules change. If you are hauling fertilizer or running a non-roadable trailer, read our breakdown of Norwesco applicator and leg tanks for fertilizer and the 49 CFR 1735 agricultural exemption and DOT classification guide before you load and roll. If you are blending liquid fertilizer, density-driven stratification is a real field problem; our guide on fertilizer-blend tank stratification covers the mixing protocol that catches a stratified load before the spreader runs off-spec. Because liquid fertilizer is heavier than water, the rated specific gravity of the shell matters as much as the gallon count for those blends, so verify your product's weight against this model before committing it to fertilizer service. Refer to the technical drawing on this page for the leg pattern, dimensions, and fitting and lid locations, and verify those against your existing manifold before you plumb anything.
Freight
This tank ships LTL by freight, quoted live to your ZIP. Norwesco molds this model at multiple plants, so we route from the location nearest you to keep transit short and cost down. Listed fulfillment points include Fairfield, TX; Griffin, GA; Hanford, CA; Lancaster, OH; Owego, NY; Shawnee, OK; St. Bonifacius, MN; Tooele, UT; and Washougal, WA. Because a 1,025 gallon tank is a large, bulky LTL load, get an exact number before you order: run your ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote freight from the closest plant and confirm fittings, hauling specs, and your trailer match before you commit.
