  • Water Tank

    For those of you that are mobile detailers that provide your own water, where did you get your tank at? What size tank do you prefer and what's the best deal you found? I'm in the process of putting a trailer together and would like to not feel like I'm overspending on a tank, so any input would be much appreciated!

      Probably too far away for you, but this will give you an idea of various tanks.

      Good old fashioned farm supply stores are a good source for you, too.

          They can also special order ones as well. Tractor Supply is where my father ordered them for a project.

              I got my trailer off of craigslist, so I'm really keeping my eye out for a tank on there too.

                        I have a 125 gallon tank, I bought it at Co-op for $125.00 it works great for me never have a problem running out of water and it has a screw on top with a hole that will fit your hose for your pump and also the cord from the pump,I never have a problem with water splashing out of it.It also has a screw off drain on the bottom side of it.
