Our truck and trailer is 19 metres long, 2.5 metres wide and 5 metres tall. We need clear access through gates, roads, roundabouts, crossing and trees on your property so that we can deliver your tank without damage to your property. If delivery cannot be made to your site, crane or other equipment hire is at the purchaser's expense and/or responsibility. If you are concerned about access to your property please request a 'Truck Only' delivery.

Delivery Terms & Conditions
Tankworld Tasmania will deliver the water tank to the customers property on a date and time confirmed with the customer by Tankworld Tasmania Dispatch when the appropriate full load of tanks is being delivered into the customers requested area.
The Tankworld Tasmania delivery driver will endeavour to place the tank on the customers adequately prepared site providing clear access is provided for a long wheel base medium rigid truck. The delivery driver will not take the truck across paddocks or along any track that fails to provide adequate overhead clearance or a suitable base for a heavy vehicle. If the Tankworld Tasmania delivery driver deems the site inaccessible for his vehicle or that the site presents a physical risk, he may refuse to place the tank on site. The tank will be unloaded in a safe position within the customers property. If the site is below ground level, on a steep site or situated on an elevated stand, placement of the tank on such a site is the customers responsibility.
Once the tank is unloaded the delivery driver will ask the customer where the tank outlet/gate valve is to be installed. If the customer elects not to have the outlet/gate valve installed at this time, Tankworld Tasmania staff will not return to install these fittings except at an additional expense to the customer.
The Tankworld Tasmania delivery driver will require assistance to unload your tank and place on site (if possible). Tankworld Tasmania will deliver to your property and unload your new tank conditional upon this assistance being provided.
- 590 Ltr - 14,300 Ltr Poly tanks no assistance required, just guidance on where the tank is to be placed.
- 10,000 Ltr Fire tanks require 1 person on site plus delivery driver and driver assistant.
