Best not fill it that is a bit over 2000 lbs. not sure you can pull it but would be interesting to see if it could:D


I was feeling stupid this morning so for fun I did just that :p The trailer tires are about 30 years old and rated for 590#'s each, they held as did that rickety old trailer. Mower pulled it OK, even up a slight incline, so all was fine until I opened the valve..... There is an 8" diameter fill cap on the top with a rubber gasket but no vent, I caught it in time before it completely turned inside out :eek: and pounded it back into shape with a rubber mallet. Tomorrow's another day......:D

What did your "watering can" originally hold in it? Would it be safe to hold drinking water?

In my area of the Southwest, alot of people haul water from water supply points. (about a quarter for 85 gallons). These are sold all around the area as Potable water tanks.

I have one that I take with me to concrete pours if there is no well on site.
