How long can diesel be stored on a farm?

Stored well — cool, sealed and water-free — diesel typically keeps 6 to 12 months before degradation becomes a risk to modern engines.

Single skin or self bunded for a farm?

Single skin suits a fixed installation on private property where bunding already exists. Self bunded removes the question entirely and protects against costly soil contamination.

Can a farm tank be towed between paddocks?

The FARM REFUELLER and POLY REFUELLER ranges are built for on-property movement, and FUELTRANS trailers are built to tow. Bulk FARMBOX storage is designed to stay put.

Farm Diesel Tanks & On-Farm Fuel Storage

Diesel tanks built for Australian properties — simple to install, easy to move between paddocks, and sized so the header never sits idle waiting on a fuel run during harvest.

Fuel is one of the biggest operating costs on a farm, and running out mid-season is the most expensive way to buy it. On-farm storage lets you buy in bulk when prices are right and keep tractors, headers and pumps running on your schedule — not the fuel agent's. A-FLO's farm range covers towable single skin FARM REFUELLER tanks, self bunded FARMBOX bulk storage and lightweight POLY REFUELLER units in both configurations.

On-Farm Storage

Farm & Agricultural Diesel Storage

Every tank is designed and engineered in-house to withstand extreme Australian conditions — from the heat and dust of outback mining sites to the coastal environments of port facilities and agricultural operations. Our diesel tanks meet Australian compliance requirements for secondary containment, environmental protection and workplace safety.

On a property the choice usually comes down to where the tank sits and what it has to do. A fixed shed installation with existing bunding can run a single skin FARM REFUELLER; a bulk store with no bund is better served by a self bunded FARMBOX; and machinery working away from the shed is refuelled from a POLY REFUELLER or a trailer.

Farm Diesel Storage FAQs

How long can diesel be stored on a farm?: Stored well — cool, sealed and water-free — diesel typically keeps 6 to 12 months before degradation becomes a risk to modern engines. See our guide: How Long Can You Store Diesel?
Single skin or self bunded for a farm?: Single skin suits a fixed installation on private property where bunding already exists or stored volumes sit below your state's threshold. Self bunded removes the question entirely and protects against costly soil contamination.
Can a farm tank be towed between paddocks?: The FARM REFUELLER and POLY REFUELLER ranges are built for on-property movement, and FUELTRANS trailers are built to tow. Bulk FARMBOX storage is designed to stay put.
What can be fitted to a farm tank?: Pumps, flow meters, hose reels and auto-shutoff nozzles are fitted in-house before delivery, so the tank arrives ready to dispense rather than as a bare vessel.
