The Snyder Industries 2500 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank arrives in white High Density Linear Polyethylene with a 1.5 specific-gravity rating, so it carries the full hydrostatic load of water and heavier liquids alike. The cylindrical body measures 96 inches in diameter and stands 90 inches in overall height, giving you a stable round footprint that sits flat on a level pad without a stand. If you are sizing a vertical storage tank for a fixed location and want a workhorse 2500 gallon vessel from a name farmers and operators already trust, this is the Snyder build to spec.
Will it work for my application
Filled to capacity with water, this tank holds roughly 20,850 pounds of contents, and at its full 1.5 SG rating it is built to carry up to 31,275 pounds of liquid. Those two numbers matter for two different reasons: the water weight tells you what your pad and floor have to support day to day, and the maximum rated contents weight tells you the heaviest liquid the tank wall is engineered to hold. Plan the foundation around the full water weight first, then confirm your liquid's specific gravity stays at or under 1.5 before filling. Size a level, properly supported concrete pad against the 96-inch round footprint and work from there. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to match this 2500 gallon body to your draw rate and refill cycle.
What to confirm before you buy
The single most common mistake on a tank this size is treating specific gravity as an afterthought. This Snyder vertical tank is rated to 1.5 SG, which covers water at 1.0 and a wide band of solutions above it, but anything denser than 1.5 needs a different tank. Match your liquid's specific gravity to the rating, not the gallon number, and you will avoid the most expensive error people make. Confirm too that you are speccing the 96 x 96 build and not the 102 x 79 or 95 x 91 variants of this 2500 gallon size, since each footprint plans differently for your space. The other detail worth nailing down is your plumbing: a vertical tank of this height is far easier to route on paper than after it lands, so map your fill and draw lines before the tank ships.

Freight and how to order
This is a vertical storage tank, so it ships by LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP code. We ship from the Snyder plant nearest you to keep transit and cost down: Albertville, AL; Marked Tree, AR; or Merced, CA. Because freight on a 90-inch tank depends entirely on your destination and delivery conditions, run your exact ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator for a live number, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it and confirm the closest origin for you.
