Read More (About Gasoline & Fuel Tank Trailers)Gasoline and fuel tank trailers, sometimes called “gas carts” or “diesel carts,” are typically used on construction sites and farms to refuel equipment on-site. Compared to gasoline and fuel tank semitrailers, these smaller fuel trailers offer less than 1,000-gallon (3,785-liter) capacities, a threshold that allows drivers without a tank endorsement to legally transport fuel to and from work sites. Similar to their larger gas and fuel tank semitrailer counterparts, the tanks fitted to these trailers are constructed to meet Department of Transportation requirements for Class 3 combustible materials.
Since there are different DOT classifications when transporting diesel or gas, fuel tank trailer manufacturers often design their trailers’ tanks to haul one or the other. Diesel tanks tend to be more commonly equipped to trailers than gasoline tanks. Models equipped to transport diesel often also include a separate diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank that’s enclosed to protect its contents from sunlight and extreme temperature. Some fuel tank trailers are available in a multi-tank design to give operators more flexibility when transporting hazardous fluids. In addition to gas or diesel fuel, multitank trailers might carry fresh oil, grease, or reclaimed oil to keep fleets topped off on the jobsite.
Gas and fuel tank trailers typically come with safety packages that include the necessary DOT decals as well as pressure relief vents and emergency shut-offs. The tank trailers often have a built-in engine and pump, as well as integrated hoses, so no other equipment is necessary to refuel vehicles and equipment. The fuel delivery system might include retractable hose reels and industrial-grade pumps to refuel equipment faster and offer greater accessibility and flexibility. These trailers also have their own battery, and some trailers include a solar power system to recharge this battery without needing to connect the trailer to a truck.
