2500 Gallon Water Tank Care and Storage

Since you have requested information on the care and storage of this tank, there are a couple of things generally recommended for the storage of a collapsible tank.

First, the tank should be placed on a level ground to help ensure stability. Since you have mentioned that your area might be sandy, using additional ground support such as berms or ground cloths can be helpful. These fabrics help to create a firmer ground structure while additionally working to help protect your tank from abrasion.

Second, a careful consideration should also be taken to the surrounding areas around your storage tank. In general, the area should be inspected and cleared of sharp edges, stones, glass and other potential harmful areas. This can help to increase your tank life and storage.
