Water Tank - 200 Gallon

• Description

  The Detail King 200 Gallon Water Tank is a UV-stabilized poly tank built for high-volume mobile detailers running pick-up, van, or trailer rigs that need to push 15 to 20 vehicles a day without a mid-route refill. This is the largest tank that still fits a standard 8-foot truck bed footprint and stays under the payload ceiling of most three-quarter-ton work trucks.

  Highlight specs:

  • 200 gallons when full
  • UV-stabilized linear polyethylene
  • 3/4” NPT molded outlets (customizable)
  • 3/8” wall thickness for impact resistance
  • 85 lbs dry weight
  • FDA & NSF approved (resin compliance FDA 21 CFR 177.1520)
  • Molded tie-down slots for ratchet straps
  • 48” L × 30” W × 38” H

  What “200-gallon capacity” means for high-volume detailers: a full exterior wash uses 10 to 15 gallons per vehicle (more on trucks, less on sedans), which puts a 200-gallon tank at roughly 15 to 20 vehicles per fill for a single-operator route or 8 to 12 vehicles per fill for a two-operator rig running parallel work. A 100-gallon tank caps a route day at 8 to 10 vehicles and forces a top-off before the second half of the schedule. The 200-gallon is the sweet spot for shops running back-to-back fleet accounts, dealership lot details, or country-club service runs where stopping to refill costs you a full billable job. UV-stabilized poly lets you stage the tank full overnight in a truck bed without algae or mold concerns. For lighter loads or solo route days, the 100 Gallon Water Tank and 150 Gallon Water Tank are the right step-down.

  Who this is for

  • High-volume mobile detailers pushing 15 to 20 vehicles in a single route day
  • Two-operator rigs running simultaneous wash and interior work off one supply
  • Fleet-contract operators handling dealership lots, rental car returns, or country-club accounts
  • Trailer-rig owners upgrading from a 100-gallon tank that’s forcing one refill per shift

  Sizing guidance

  • 60 gallon is right for part-time detailers doing 3-4 vehicles a day
  • 100 gallon is the full-day sweet spot for solo mobile pros
  • 150 gallon bridges the gap when 100 isn’t quite enough but 200 is too much truck load
  • 200 gallon (this product) is for high-volume routes and two-operator rigs
  • 330 gallon is for fleet-only rigs and trailer-mounted shop builds

  Truck bed weight and payload planning

  A full 200-gallon tank weighs roughly 1,750 lbs (200 gal × 8.34 lbs per gal water = 1,668 lbs, plus 85 lbs dry tank weight). Add hose, reels, a pressure washer, and a generator, and you can land north of 2,200 lbs of equipment in the bed before tools and chemicals.

  • Half-ton pickups (F-150, Silverado 1500, Ram 1500): payload capped at 1,500 to 2,000 lbs depending on trim. A full 200-gallon tank can put you at or past the door-jamb payload sticker. Step down to a 100 or 150 gallon, or upgrade to a 3/4-ton.
  • Three-quarter-ton pickups (F-250, Silverado 2500, Ram 2500): 3,000 to 4,200 lbs payload typical. Full 200-gallon tank fits comfortably with margin for the rest of the rig.
  • One-ton and dual-rear-wheel trucks: no concern, full bed capacity available.
  • Cargo trailers: 5,000-lb-rated tandem-axle trailers handle the load with room for extraction equipment, generators, and supply storage.

  Always check your truck’s door-jamb payload sticker before mounting a 200-gallon tank. Manufacturer payload ratings already account for the curb weight of your truck plus a driver, so the number on the sticker is what you have left for cargo.
