3000 Litre Fuel Tank Hire

3000 Litre Fuel Tank Hire — Reliable, AS 1940 Compliant Diesel Storage for Medium-Scale Operations

The 3000L fuel tank is a dependable choice for medium-sized commercial and industrial projects that need secure, compliant diesel storage with the flexibility to move between sites. Designed for operations that require more capacity than a compact tank can offer, this self-bunded unit meets full AS 1940 requirements with its double-walled, 110% bunded construction.

Internal baffles help control fuel surge, allowing the tank to be safely transported while full—ideal for dynamic worksites, rotating plant, or multi-stage infrastructure projects. A large lockable cabinet protects pumps, hoses, and fittings from weather and tampering, while the robust galvanised outer frame ensures durability during transport and day-to-day site operations.

Whether you’re supporting civil construction, mobile plant, HVAC equipment, or temporary power systems, the 3000L tank provides a practical, versatile, and compliant diesel storage solution built for real-world conditions.

Applications

  • Medium-scale construction and civil projects that need dependable diesel storage.
  • Temporary power setups that can support 1 to 3 generators on medium-sized sites.
  • Perfect for mobile worksites that require safe fuel transport, even when the tanks are full.
  • Refuelling for various machinery and vehicles, including excavators, skid steers, boom lifts, and site vehicles.
  • Great for infrastructure upgrades, shutdowns, and getting equipment up and running.
  • HVAC support for diesel-powered boilers or temporary heating systems on larger projects.
  • Outdoor events that need secure, mid-sized diesel storage without taking up too much space.
  • Agricultural, irrigation, and pumping applications that require a mobile fuel source.
  • Emergency response and utility operations that need reliable backup fuel storage.

Features & Benefits

  • Transportable While Full: Thanks to internal baffles, you can lift, crane, and relocate this tank safely without needing ADR driver training — even when it’s completely full.
  • Stackable Design: Engineered to stack two-high when full and three-high when empty, helping you maximise yard or onsite storage space.
  • Large Secure Pump Cabinet: The deep, lockable housing protects pumps, hoses, metering gear, and fittings from weather exposure and tampering.
  • Easy Handling: Full-load lifting eyes and forklift pockets make the tank easy to position and move, even when it’s filled to capacity.
  • Multi-Generator Capability: Feed and return connections allow the tank to support up to three generators simultaneously, while also enabling refuelling of plant machinery.
  • Optimised for Transport: Sized perfectly for efficient loading across truck beds or into shipping containers, simplifying logistics.
  • Protective Frame: The galvanised steel outer frame shields the tank from impact damage, improving durability and maintaining branding decals.
  • Self-Bunded Compliance: A robust double-walled (steel-in-steel) bund delivers 110% containment, meeting all AS 1940 standards for safe diesel storage.
