Husky Self-Supporting Onion Tanks: The Frameless Solution
When a temporary liquid storage solution is needed, but manpower and space are a concern, our self supporting onion tanks are the perfect answer. Also known as pumpkin tanks or onion water tanks, their unique frameless design allows for a seamless, one-person setup. A heavy-duty foam collar rises as the tank fills, so there's no assembly required—just unfold and go. This innovative feature makes it one of the easiest and most reliable portable tanks for rapid deployment, freeing up valuable personnel for other critical tasks....

At Tank Depot, we offer a full line of these trusted tanks from Husky Portable Containment, with capacities ranging from 250 to 20,000 gallons. Whether you need a low-side tank for easy dumping in water shuttle operations or a high-side model for bucket dipping in forest fire operations, we have a solution built for the challenge. Our tanks are available in durable PVC and high-performance EXLON® materials, ensuring you get a robust tank that can withstand the demands of any emergency or industrial application.

Key Features of Onion Bladder Water Tanks for Rapid Deployment

Choosing between an aluminum folding frame tank and a steel folding frame tank is a critical decision that depends entirely on your operational needs. Both options feature the same durable, 22oz vinyl liner, but their frames are built for different purposes.

One-Person Setup

These self supporting onion tanks are a frameless design, so there is no heavy assembly. They can be quickly deployed by a single person, which frees up valuable manpower in critical situations.

Self-Rising Design

The heavy-duty foam collar automatically rises as the tank fills with water. This simple yet effective feature allows for a quick and effortless setup, and keeps the open top accessible for filling or dumping.

Low-Side vs. High-Side Models

Our frameless tanks come in two distinct models. The low-side models are ideal for water shuttle operations, while the high-side models are designed for specialized uses like bucket dipping in forest fire operations, making them highly versatile.

Patented Easy Lift Handles

An exclusive feature on Husky tanks, these handles are welded to the tank floor. They make teardown quicker and easier, allowing you to fold and remove the tank with less effort and in a shorter amount of time.

Superior Durability

The entire tank is made from a durable PVC or high-performance EXLON® material, which is known for its superior resistance to UV, heat, and cold cracking. This ensures the tank can withstand the toughest environments and last for years.

Accessories and Fittings

To get the most out of your onion water tanks, a wide array of accessories are available. From ground covers to protect the liner from rough terrain to a variety of standard flanges and fittings, our product specialists can help you find the right pieces for your specific needs.

Applications of Husky Self-Supporting Onion Tanks

Rural Firefighting

For fire crews in remote locations, our self supporting onion tanks are an indispensable tool. They serve as a quick-access water dump site for tenders, allowing them to rapidly offload their water and return to the fill station. This frameless solution dramatically increases a fire department's water delivery capability and response time.

Emergency Water Storage

Whether for disaster relief or a planned outage, a Husky Portable Containment onion water tank is a vital asset. Its simple one-person setup and durable construction make it a reliable, high-capacity reservoir for clean water, ensuring communities and remote teams have a dependable supply when it matters most.

Industrial & Construction Sites

These frameless tanks are perfect for job sites that require a flexible water source. They can be used for dust control, on-site cleaning, or even for mixing fire retardant. The choice between low-side and high-side models allows for easy dumping or bucket dipping, adapting to the specific needs of your project.

Aquaculture & Aquaculture Systems

The open top design and durable liner of our self-supporting tanks make them an excellent, temporary solution for fish farming, water treatment, or pond maintenance. They provide a safe and contained environment for aquatic life while a permanent pond or tank is being cleaned or repaired.
