The Norwesco 2400 Gallon Hauling Water Storage Tank is a low-profile transport tank molded in white polyethylene and rated to a 1.5 specific gravity. The low-profile geometry keeps the center of gravity down for hauling water by trailer or skid, and the 2,400-gallon capacity makes it a workhorse for rural water delivery, fire-water reservoir staging, jobsite supply, and bulk water storage. This is the tank growers, haulers, and remote-site operators search for when they want a Norwesco water storage tank in a transport-ready low profile.
Will it work for your job
Capacity is 2,400 gallons of fresh water in a polyethylene shell rated for a 1.5 specific gravity, so you have headroom above plain water (SG 1.0) for water carrying dissolved solids or light agricultural mixes. Plan your trailer, skid, or pad around the loaded weight, not the empty tank: filled with water this tank carries roughly 20,016 lb of contents, and at its full 1.5 SG rating it can hold up to about 30,024 lb of liquid weight. Those numbers drive your axle rating, frame, and tie-down design more than any other spec on the page. If your loads run heavier than water — dissolved solids, brine, or light ag mixes near or above SG 1.5 — this 1.5-rated shell is the spec you want; for anything denser, call us at 866-418-1777 to confirm a higher-SG-rated tank before you buy. For sizing across your fleet or storage yard, run the Tank Sizing Calculator and read the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit a footprint.
The mistake to avoid
Treat the 1.5 specific gravity as a liquid-density limit, not a chemical clearance. The rating means the polyethylene wall is engineered to support a liquid up to 1.5 times the weight of water; it does not, on its own, qualify this tank for chemical service. Keep it on water and water-density contents. The second mistake is under-building the support: people size the trailer for 2,400 gallons and forget that 2,400 gallons of water alone is over 20,000 lb of moving load. Fitting and outlet sizing for this tank are not listed on this record — confirm the port layout, bulkhead fittings, and gasket/seal sizing against the technical drawing on this page or by phone (866-418-1777) before you plumb fill-and-draw or build the mount.
Hauling and field use
The low-profile shape is purpose-built for transport: lower stance, more stable load, easier loading and unloading. If this is going into a fire-water or remote-site role, our guide to fire-water reservoir tank design for rural and remote sites covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. For procurement and field-operations detail specific to this series, see the Norwesco low-profile hauling tank series field guide. Running reclaimed or grey water through a storage train? The industrial water reuse tank topology guide walks through quality-banded storage and treatment sequencing.
