Potable Water Transport Trailer Details
Our 550 gallon potable water trailer is built for demanding jobsites and long‑term use. Designed with NSF/ANSI certified components, this trailer protects water quality during storage and transport. This makes it ideal for drinking water delivery, remote work sites, and emergency response.
For projects that need larger potable water on site, we also offer NSF/ANSI‑certified stand‑alone potable water tanks in 800, 1,025, and 1,600‑gallon sizes. Use them by themselves or pair them with any of our water trailers to scale storage capacity quickly.
The trailer includes a high‑quality Honda engine paired with a 2″ stainless steel transfer pump for quick and efficient tank filling and discharge. All components in contact with water are rated for potable use, ensuring the safe handling of drinking water. This DOT‑compliant trailer is ready for highway use and includes key safety features such as recessed LED lighting for visibility and diamond tread fenders that double as safe walkways for top‑tank access.
If you need something different, we offer a wide selection of water trailers in a variety of sizes, styles, and configurations. Please visit our Water Trailer homepage for more trailers. All models are built for water transport and ship from warehouses across the U.S.

For freeze protection for your water trailer or skid, our Water Trailer Heater Blankets are exactly what you need . When cold weather affects the viscosity of fuel, fluids, and other materials you can lose production time, adding additional costs. Power blankets keep your tanks and smaller corrugated/steel tanks at constant temperature, preventing fluids from freezing in extreme conditions. We customize thermal blankets to meet your specific needs, no matter the tank size or shape. Call us today to find out more!
