Our Water Bowser collection provides the ultimate in mobile water storage and distribution. Whether you are managing a busy construction site, tending to livestock in remote pastures, or coordinating an outdoor event, these towable units ensure that a reliable water supply is always within reach. Built on heavy-duty galvanised steel chassis, our bowsers are designed to withstand the rigours of both public highways and challenging off-road environments.
We offer two distinct configurations to match your operational needs:
Highway Tow Bowsers: Engineered for public road use, these units comply with all EU lighting and braking regulations. They feature high-speed axles and road tyres, making them perfect for transporting water between depots or to event locations.
Site Tow Bowsers: Optimized for rugged terrain, these bowsers use large flotation tyres to prevent sinking into mud or soft ground. They are the go-to choice for farms, quarries, and demolition sites where road legality isn't required but durability is paramount.
Our bowsers are more than just tanks on wheels; they are versatile tools designed for specific industries:
Livestock Watering: Integrated troughs and self-filling float valves provide a "set-and-forget" solution for animal hydration in fields without mains water.
Dust Suppression: Outfitted with spray bars and petrol-driven pumps, these units help construction sites remain compliant with environmental regulations by keeping dust under control.
Mobile Cleaning: Pressure washer bowsers combine high-capacity storage with powerful Honda or Yanmar engines, allowing for self-contained cleaning in areas without power or water hookups.
Amenity Maintenance: Flower and plant watering bowsers with extended chassis plates for pumps and hose reels are essential for local councils and landscaping professionals.
Every water bowser in our range features a baffled tank. This internal structural design is critical for mobile safety, as it limits water surge during transit. By controlling the movement of the liquid, the bowser remains stable behind the towing vehicle, even during sudden braking or sharp turns. Additionally, our tanks are made from high-grade polyethylene that is UV-stabilized to prevent brittleness, while the chassis are hot-dip galvanised to eliminate the risk of rust.
Choosing the right bowser involves calculating laden weights, selecting the correct hitch type (ball or ring eye), and ensuring the tank material matches your liquid (potable vs. non-potable). With over two decades of experience, The Tank Shop team is here to guide you through these technical requirements, ensuring your mobile water system is safe, legal, and fit for purpose.
