The Snyder Industries 2500 Gallon HDPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank holds 2,500 gallons in a 90 x 90-inch footprint standing 107 inches tall, molded from high-density linear polyethylene in natural white and ASTM-certified for liquid storage. Rated to a 1.4 specific gravity, it carries up to roughly 29,190 pounds of contents versus about 20,850 pounds of plain water - close to 40% more density margin than a standard 1.0-rated water tank, which is what makes this vertical storage tank a flexible pick for water service and many heavier solutions alike. If you are matching capacity to your draw rate and refill schedule, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and review the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit to a size.
Will this tank work for your site?
Filled with water this HDPE vertical tank weighs roughly 20,850 pounds, and at its maximum rated 1.4 SG contents it reaches about 29,190 pounds. Plan the pad accordingly: that loaded weight over a 90 x 90-inch footprint needs a level, properly engineered foundation rated for the full liquid load, not the empty shell. Confirm your placement clearances too - at 107 inches tall the tank wants roughly 9 feet of overhead room plus access above the top fittings, and a door or gate opening wider than 90 inches for delivery. The three penetrations each do a specific job: the flange is your plumbed outlet, the 18-inch polyethylene threaded and vented fitting handles fill and venting, and the manway with 15-inch access is the entry point for inspection and cleaning. See the technical drawing on this page for exact fitting placement and elevations, and note that some gallonage marks may be removed where fittings sit - so verify your level-indication needs against the drawing.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank like this is reading the 1.4 specific-gravity rating as permission to store any liquid up to that density. The rating describes the wall's structural capacity, not chemical compatibility. Linear polyethylene resists many fluids, but resin grade and the gasket material at each penetration - the flange, the 18-inch vented fitting, and the 15-inch manway - still govern whether a given chemical is safe in long-term service. For straight water and light solutions you are well inside the envelope; for anything heavier or reactive, confirm compatibility against the resin and the OEM chart before filling. If headspace and freeboard matter for your application, the freeboard sizing guide and our deep dive on HDPE wall thickness and ASTM D1998 sizing logic are worth reading.

Freight and ordering
This 2500-gallon Snyder vertical tank ships LTL from a single plant in Marked Tree, Arkansas, with freight quoted live to your ZIP. Because it travels as oversized LTL from one Arkansas origin, transit cost varies a lot by destination - buyers farther from AR should expect higher freight and should price it early through our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it for you. Listed at the price shown above, before freight. Have your delivery ZIP and any site-access notes ready and we will help you line up the right vertical storage tank for the job.
