I'll also check to see if there are any tank cleaning services in the nearest large town.


You're on the right track,.....The "Deck Tank" that sits on my old Service Truck

Is a "Home Built" that I Welded up MOONS ago,.....It holds about 140 Gal Diesel IIRC. I'll be setting it up on a "Sled",....modularized with a smaller Gasoline Tank.

One good thing about smaller storage tanks is that if "Containment" regulations apply, you're not out a small fortune implementing same. In THAT regard, think stock tanks,....

These "Rural Self Sufficiency" threads ROCK !
