FAQ
When should I rent this 250-gallon Fuelcube instead of using fuel cans or scheduled fuel truck deliveries?+
This is commonly used for: extended run-time on continuous generators; powering diesel ground heaters; supplying temporary site construction heaters; fleet refueling for excavators and skid steers on remote jobsites; maintaining backup power during utility outages. It is ideal on multi-day projects where stationary machines run around the clock or where daily mobile fuel delivery is too costly. For small, single-day jobs requiring only a few gallons for a single tool, standard fuel cans remain the simpler choice.
How is the onboard fuel dispensing pump powered?+
The integrated dispensing pump runs on 12-volt DC power and includes battery power leads with alligator clips. You will need to provide and connect to a 12-volt battery—such as a vehicle battery, equipment battery, or a dedicated deep-cycle 12V marine battery—to operate the pump and dispense fuel.
Can this fuel tank run stationary equipment and dispense fuel to other machines simultaneously?+
Yes, this tank is engineered for dual-purpose site duty. It includes dedicated ports to connect fuel supply and return lines directly into stationary equipment like generators and heaters, while also featuring the 12V pump, hose, and nozzle for fueling mobile equipment across the jobsite.
What are the jobsite environmental advantages of 110% full containment?+
The double-walled steel design features an outer containment basin that holds 110% of the inner tank's capacity. This built-in secondary containment prevents hazardous environmental leaks and spillage, satisfying local jobsite environmental regulations without requiring an external spill berm or drip pan.
How do I lift or move the tank on site?+
The tank features integrated forklift pockets allowing safe handling with a telehandler or forklift. Because this model does not have top lifting eye lugs, if hoisting it with a crane or excavator, you must use certified lifting straps routed completely underneath the base of the tank.
How heavy is the tank, and can I haul it while full of fuel?+
While the empty steel cube weighs roughly 1,100 lbs, adding 248 gallons of diesel increases the total weight to nearly 2,900 lbs. If you intend to transport it full, ensure your trailer or truck bed has a minimum 3,000 lb payload rating and appropriate tie-down points, or request direct jobsite delivery through Gap Power.
What types of fuel can be put into this tank?+
This unit is rated strictly for diesel fuel and light heating oils. It is not approved or certified for gasoline, aviation fuel, or other volatile flammable liquids due to venting, pump motor rating, and static grounding limitations.
What equipment is included with the fuel tank rental?+
The rental includes the 248-gallon double-walled tank, an integrated 12V electric dispensing pump, fuel hose, manual dispensing nozzle, and 12V battery power leads. If you are plumbing directly into a generator or heater, verify that you have compatible diesel feed and return hoses matching your equipment.
