3,000 gallons at 97 inches: the low 102 inch tank, in green
The Snyder 32572 holds 3,000 gallons on a 102 inch floor at only 97 inches tall, in green polyethylene, 353 pounds empty. It is the low-profile answer at this capacity: 12 inches shorter than the 96 inch tanks that hold the same water, wide enough to keep its center of gravity down, and green for drinking water that stands in view. A 26 inch threaded vented manway on top, a 1-1/2 inch polypropylene inlet and a 2 inch polypropylene outlet. Rated for a specific gravity of 1.0.

Why the wide floor
Under an eave, a canopy or a barn door header, 97 inches clears where 109 will not, and the 102 inch floor spreads the full 25,020 pound load over a larger circle than any other 3,000 gallon shape. The trade is footprint: a 102 inch pad rather than 96. The green 3,000 gallon low-profile buyer's guide walks through the low shape in detail, and the concrete pad sizing guide covers the ACI 360R-10 method for a slab that carries the load in full contact.
The 3,000 gallon shapes
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| WG62, green | 2,600 | 96 x 91 in | 427 lb |
| 32781, straight wall | 3,000 | 102 x 97 in | 350 lb |
| 32572 (this tank) | 3,000 | 102 x 97 in | 353 lb |
| 32567 | 3,000 | 96 x 109 in | 382 lb |
| 32569, green | 3,000 | 96 x 109 in | 427 lb |
| 32294 | 3,500 | 96 x 125 in | 535 lb |
Two decisions. Height first: under 100 inches of clearance, the 102 inch tanks are the only 3,000 gallon options. Wall second: the 96 inch 32569 carries 74 more pounds of resin than this tank and stands a foot taller; it is the heavier-duty buy for a tank that will stay full in the sun for years, if the height fits. The black 32781 is this shape with 3 fewer pounds of resin.

Where 3,000 gallons goes
A private fire reserve at the size most rural plans start with, per the fire-water reservoir design guide; a rainwater or drinking water store beside a house; the storage block of a reuse train in the industrial water reuse topology guide. Confirm the gallons against your draw with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.
Oversize freight
