The Snyder Industries 7650 Gallon Vertical Storage Tank is bulk-scale water storage built for fixed installations where one large cistern replaces a bank of smaller tanks. Molded from polyethylene in natural white and carrying a 1.5 specific gravity rating, this vertical storage tank stands 122 inches tall on a nominal 142 by 142 inch footprint, holding 7,650 gallons in a single body. If you are sizing a vertical tank for fresh water, fire reserve, irrigation, or process supply, the question is whether it fits your pad and your fluid, and the numbers below answer both.
Will this tank handle your water
At full water, this tank carries 63,801 pounds of contents. The 1.5 specific gravity rating means it is engineered to a maximum rated contents weight of 95,702 pounds, so it holds structural margin above plain water and can carry fluids heavier than water up to that 1.5 density ceiling. For straightforward fresh-water and rainwater storage you are well inside the rating. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm this 7,650 gallon vertical tank matches your draw and refill cycle, and if you are sizing usable volume against thermal expansion and freeboard, read Snyder Captor Double-Wall Freeboard Sizing per ASTM D1998 before you commit to a footprint this size.
Foundation and footprint
A 142 by 142 inch base carrying nearly 64,000 pounds of water has to sit on a properly designed slab; this is not a tank you set on bare ground or a gravel pad. The dimensions above are nominal molded figures, so confirm exact height and base outline against the technical drawing on this page, then read Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks to pour a pad that meets the ACI framework for a load this heavy. The single biggest mistake at this size is undersizing the foundation; a slab that is too thin or unlevel will stress the tank wall and the outlet.
Common uses at 7,650 gallons
This capacity is a frequent choice for rural and remote fire-water reserves, industrial water reuse trains, and high-demand irrigation or process buffering.

This tank ships LTL freight from the Snyder plant in Lincoln, NE, with cost quoted live to your ZIP, so get your number on the Freight Cost Estimator on this page since a tank of this size and weight is a dedicated freight movement, not parcel shipping. Fitting size and placement are confirmed with you before the order ships, so if you have questions on outlet configuration, lead time, or delivery access for a tank this large, call 866-418-1777 and we will spec it with you before you order.
