Fuel Storage Tanks
When you need to store fuel on site, a high quality and reliable tank is essential. At Northern Tank Store we supply a comprehensive range of tanks and solutions to meet almost any fuel storage requirement, including bunded options in steel and plastic with capacities up to 60,000 litres.
Fuel Storage For Commercial Applications
Fuel storage tanks are primarily used for commercial or agricultural applications, especially where there is a requirement to store a significant volume of fuel on site. For large commercial or agricultural enterprises that require a continuous supply of fuel, installation of a fuel storage tank is the usual solution where travel to a commercial fuel station is not practical.
Whatever capacity is needed, Northern Tank Store is here to help. With one of the largest ranges of fuel tanks available we’re able to provide solutions for any requirement. Our range includes high quality steel fuel storage tanks which are perfect for the secure storage of a range of fuels and light oils. We also supply robust plastic fuel storage tanks in a wide range of capacities, all manufactured to meet or exceed applicable regulations.
Safe & Secure Fuel Storage
The environmentally hazardous and flammable fuel typically stored in fuel storage tanks make safety and security a top priority at every stage. For example, fuel storage tanks need to prevent leakage and spills which can have a significant environmental impact as well as cost implications. Designed for secure fuel storage over extended periods, our fuel tanks prioritise durability and are built to prevent leakage or spillage when in use.
When fuel storage tanks are above a certain capacity, they cannot be legally installed if they are not bunded. This means that the fuel is stored in an inner chamber within the tank itself. Northern Tank Store can advise on this as well as other legal requirements that may apply to your site, and we supply a wide range of bunded fuel storage tanks in all capacities, as well as heating oil tanks should you need to store fuel for a heating system on your property.
Bespoke Fuel Storage Solutions
The vast range of commercial and agricultural applications mean that when it comes to fuel storage, nearly every site will have its own specific legal and professional requirements regarding the design of the tank. Unlike most of our competitors, at Northern Tank Store we have an experienced in-house design team and one of the UK’s most established manufacturing facilities. This means we can supply bespoke diesel storage tanks and solutions that have been designed to meet specific needs.
Whatever the individual specifications of your property or business, Northern Tank Store can provide the perfect fuel storage solution, ensuring full compliance with all applicable legislation and regulations.
FAQs About Fuel Storage Tanks
What types of fuel can be stored in these tanks?
Our fuel storage tanks are suitable for a range of fuels including diesel (DERV), kerosene, heating oil, HVO, and biodiesel. Check individual product specifications to confirm fuel compatibility.
How long is delivery for fuel storage tanks?
Many tanks are delivered within 5-10 working days. Built to order or larger capacity tanks may have extended lead times. Accurate availability and delivery estimates are shown for each product. For details of costs, see our delivery information.
What sizes are available for fuel storage tanks?
Can I order a bespoke fuel tank?
Yes. We offer bespoke fuel storage solutions including custom dimensions, outlets, fittings, and compatibility for specific fuels or on-site layouts. Get in touch to discuss your requirements.
What’s the difference between a fuel storage tank and a dispensing tank?
A fuel storage tank is used to hold fuel safely on-site, typically with basic outlets or fill points. A dispensing tank includes integrated equipment like pumps, hoses, and nozzles, allowing direct refuelling of vehicles or machinery.
Are your fuel storage tanks bunded?
Yes. All our fuel tanks are bunded (double-walled) as standard to comply with environmental regulations. The outer bund contains any leaks from the inner tank, reducing pollution risk and enhancing safety.
Are fuel storage tanks compliant with UK environmental laws?
Yes. Our bunded fuel tanks comply with regulations including The Control of Pollution (Oil Storage) (England) Regulations 2001 and other relevant environmental and safety standards.
What materials are your fuel tanks made from?
Fuel tanks are available in UV-stabilised polyethylene or heavy-duty steel. Plastic tanks are corrosion-resistant and lightweight, while steel tanks offer added durability, security, and fire resistance.
Are these tanks suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. All our fuel storage tanks are built to withstand outdoor conditions, with materials designed to resist UV, weather, and corrosion over long-term use.
Can these tanks be used for commercial or agricultural fuel storage?
Absolutely. These tanks are ideal for farms, haulage yards, construction sites, or industrial facilities where storing bulk fuel on-site improves convenience and cost-efficiency.
Do I need planning permission to install a fuel storage tank?
Not usually, but local regulations may apply depending on the size, location, and fuel type. For larger installations or tanks near water sources or buildings, it’s advisable to consult with your local planning authority or an OFTEC-registered installer.
Do the tanks come with fittings and access points?
Most tanks come with a vent, inspection point, lockable fill point, and outlet. Optional extras include gauges, alarms, and filter systems. Check product listings or contact us for customisation.
How do I maintain a fuel storage tank?
Regular inspections, keeping the tank clean and free of water ingress, and checking gauges or filters will help maintain safe operation. Annual checks by a qualified technician are recommended.
