Fibrglass tanks suitable for Diesel/Oil?

[DHayden]

I've been looking for storage tanks for waste oil and diesel. Anyone know anything about fiberglass? will this hold up?



335 Gallon Fiberglass Chemical Storage Tank P/U in PHX - eBay (item 270251296641 end time Jul-10-08 16:40:39 PDT)



They have several available in alot of different sizes that would work well for me and the price is right. They held pesticides, so I'm wondering if they are washed out with diesel if that will clean the pesticide out well and then if it will hold diesel or oil without any sort of decay. Thanks for the help.

I work on an oil lease, all of our crude is stored in 400 bbl fiberglass tanks. I don't see any issues for you.

I haul 10-30k gallon fiberglass fuel storage tanks. That should work fine for you, just make sure all those fittings down low do not leak. With pesticide residue in there, you shouldn't have to worry about algae build up for a while either !!!!
