The Norwesco 200 Gallon Green Vertical Water Storage Tank is a California-only model built for compact above-ground water storage where floor space is tight but vertical clearance is open. It holds 200 gallons of water in a 30-inch by 30-inch footprint and stands 72 inches tall, so it tucks into corners, equipment yards, and pump-house bays that wider tanks can't fit. Molded from polyethylene with a 1.0 specific gravity rating, it is sized for plain water and water-density liquids, which makes it a straightforward fit for irrigation feed, fire-water reserve, and rainwater holding. Green is the standard California offering for this size, and because it is a California-only color, out-of-state buyers should call 866-418-1777 to confirm whether a closer plant or color serves their ZIP better before booking freight.
Will it work for your site?
This is a vertical water tank: 72 inches tall on a 30 x 30 footprint, rated to 200 gallons. Full of water, the tank and its contents reach 1,668 pounds, which is also the maximum rated contents weight, so plan the pad and any tie-downs around that loaded figure rather than the empty shell weight. Across the 900-square-inch base that works out to roughly 1.85 psi average bearing pressure before any edge or point-load concentration, so the pad has to be flat, level, and fully supportive edge to edge. The 1.0 specific gravity rating means this tank is engineered for water and other liquids no heavier than water; it is not the right choice for heavier-than-water chemicals, which call for a higher specific-gravity tank, so call 866-418-1777 for a 1.5-plus SG-rated recommendation if that is your service. The pack does not document this tank's fitting and outlet configuration, so confirm the bulkhead/fitting and gasket spec by phone before you order. If you are still matching size to demand, the Tank Sizing Calculator lets you weigh 200 gallons of usable volume against your daily draw and refill interval, and the Tank Sizing Guide walks through the same math step by step.
Getting it to your site
This 200 gallon vertical storage tank ships LTL freight from the Norwesco plant in Hanford, CA, quoted live to your ZIP. Because it is a California-only color, sourcing it close to in-state customers keeps the freight leg short. Use the Freight Cost Estimator to get a freight estimate to your address, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it for you. LTL rates depend on distance, accessorials such as liftgate or residential delivery, and the destination ZIP, so confirm those details before you book.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error with a tank this tall on a small base is underbuilding the foundation. At 72 inches of height over a 30 x 30 footprint carrying 1,668 pounds when full, a soft, uneven, or undersized pad lets the tank settle, lean, or stress the wall near any fitting penetration. Pour or set a proper pad before filling and verify it with a controlled water-fill check. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks covers the framework, and the hydrostatic test methodology guide walks through the water-fill acceptance check that catches pad settlement and fitting leaks before the tank goes into service. If this unit will anchor a rural fire reserve, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers sizing discipline and freeze protection for cold-climate service. You can also confirm dimensions and fitting locations against the technical drawing on this page.
