A 150 gallon pest control operator tank that fits a service truck and ships by UPS
The Norwesco 150 gallon pest control operator tank, part number 40669, is a white polyethylene tank 48 inches long, 36 inches wide and 28 inches tall, weighing 61 lb empty. It is the mix and carry tank for a pest control, lawn care or termite service truck: low enough to ride in a pickup bed or a van under a cap, with a flat base that sits on the deck without a cradle. It has an 8 inch threaded vented lid on top and no outlet fitting installed, so the outlet goes where your pump and reel layout wants it. The tank is rated for liquids up to 1.5 specific gravity, which is 12.52 lb per gallon, with a service limit of 120 F; 150 gallons of water weighs 1251 lb. Norwesco backs it with a 3 year limited full replacement warranty per its 2024 liquid storage catalog. White polyethylene lets the operator read the level through the wall from the tailgate.

On the truck
At 48 by 36 inches the tank sits across a full size pickup bed or along the floor of a service van, and at 28 inches tall it clears most bed caps and tonneau covers; measure the opening and the height under the cap before you order. Full of water it weighs about 1300 lb with the tank, so the vehicle's payload, not the tank, is the limit on a half ton truck. Strap it over the body with the straps clear of the lid, and give it a lip or a frame to sit against so it cannot slide under braking. Norwesco builds the same tank in two other sizes for the same trucks: the 100 gallon pest control operator tank for a smaller rig and the 200 gallon pest control operator tank for a longer route. For the volume, the tank sizing calculator and tank sizing guide turn a day's stops into gallons.
What goes in it
Diluted pesticide, herbicide and termiticide mixes, liquid fertilizer and clean rinse water are the normal loads, and polyethylene handles all of them. Check any concentrate or solvent carrier in our chemical compatibility guide before it goes in. Keep the liquid under 120 F; a dark truck bed in summer does not get a white tank there, but a hot water fill can. Empty and rinse the tank at the end of the day rather than leaving a mix in it overnight.
Openings and fittings
- Lid. An 8 inch threaded vented lid on top. It is the fill and the vent together, sized for a hose, a measuring jug or a chemical induction line.
- Outlet. None installed. Tell us the pump you are feeding and where the suction runs, and we quote a bulkhead fitting of the right size for the tank's low end; a bulkhead fitting needs a flat area of wall at least as wide as its flange.
- Agitation and return. If your pump returns a bypass to the tank for agitation, that is a second fitting, usually high in the wall. Plan both before the order so they arrive together.
- Drawing. Norwesco's drawing for this tank is linked under Technical Drawing on this page and shows the flat areas where fittings can go.
The other 150 gallon version
Norwesco also builds the 150 gallon pest control operator tank with a wide threaded manway, part number 42836, for operators who want a hand and a brush inside the tank. It ships by LTL freight rather than parcel; this tank, 40669, is the one that comes by UPS.
Shipping and receiving
At 61 lb and 48 by 36 by 28 inches the tank travels by UPS, from the nearest of Norwesco's plants; most of them build this part number, so it comes from close to you. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the cost to your ZIP, or request a written quote for a fleet order. Check 40669 on the carton against your order, look the tank over for transit damage, and fill it with water once in the driveway before it carries a mix, so the fittings prove tight with something harmless in it.
