Need to move large volumes of liquid or bulk product efficiently and safely? A tanker trailer is one of the most versatile and hardworking assets in any transport operation. At Western Truck Sales, we stock a range of new and used tanker trailers — all inspected and ready to work — so you can find the right setup for your hauling needs without the hassle.
What Are Tanker Trailers Used For?
Tanker trailers are towed behind a prime mover and designed to carry liquid or bulk materials over short and long distances. They’re built tough for demanding Australian conditions and used across a huge range of industries. Common applications include:
- Water cartage — transporting potable or non-potable water to remote sites and properties
- Fuel & lubricant transport — delivering diesel, oil, and other fuel products to farms, mine sites, and worksites
- Chemical & industrial liquids — moving non-hazardous industrial fluids safely and efficiently
- Waste water & effluent — managing liquid waste on construction and civil projects
- Agricultural liquids — fertilisers, herbicides, and liquid stockfeed transport
Types of Tanker Trailers:
Tanker trailers come in a variety of configurations depending on what you’re carrying and how you need to operate. Key things to consider include:
- Single or multi-compartment — multi-compartment tanks let you carry different products in a single trip
- Aluminium or steel construction — aluminium is lighter for better payload, steel is often preferred for durability in harsh environments
- Rear discharge or pump-out — different setups to suit different unloading requirements
- Capacity — ranging from smaller trailers suited to regional operations through to high-volume highway tankers
