Deso 5000 Litre Bunded Heating Oil Tank
The 5000 Litre Bunded Heating Oil Tank provides a robust and dependable solution for storing larger volumes of heating oil. Manufactured in the UK by DESO, this high-capacity tank combines durable polyethylene construction with an integral bund for additional protection against leaks and spills.
With a vertical design and compact footprint for its capacity, the tank is an excellent choice for properties, businesses and sites that require substantial fuel storage without unnecessarily taking up valuable ground space.
Suitable for both domestic and commercial applications, the tank is supplied with essential fittings including overfill protection, inspection access, a vent and a secure lockable cover.

Fully Bunded Construction
This 5000 litre tank features a tank-within-a-tank design, providing an additional level of protection for stored heating oil.
The inner tank holds the fuel, while the surrounding outer tank acts as secondary containment. Should the primary tank develop a leak, the outer bund is designed to contain the escaped oil, helping reduce the risk of environmental contamination and costly oil loss.
For customers looking for a long-term heating oil storage solution, bunded construction offers additional security and peace of mind.
Space-Saving Vertical Design
Despite its substantial capacity, the tank's vertical construction helps minimise the amount of ground space required.
The tank has a footprint of approximately 2075mm, allowing a large quantity of fuel to be stored without the extended length associated with many horizontal storage tanks.
This makes it particularly useful when a high storage capacity is needed but available installation space is limited.
Secure Fuel Storage
Protecting valuable heating oil is an important consideration, particularly for tanks installed in accessible outdoor locations.
The 5000 Litre Bunded Oil Tank incorporates a lockable manhole cover, helping prevent unauthorised access to the tank and its fittings.
Delivery
All our oil tanks are for delivery by customer offload. This entails the customer to acquire the right manpower and/or machinery to help unload the tank/s from the delivery vehicle.
If you require assistance with offloading, we may be able to offer a tail lift (lowers the tank to the ground) or HIAB (lorry with a mounted crane to winch the tank off the delivery vehicle). Please contact us if this is required for delivery.

Delivery Terms
Estimated Leadtime is 5-7 Working Days
The delivery of a tank can be confusing as each manufacturer offers a slightly different service and lead time. Please refer to our Delivery Information page. Standard tank deliveries are "kerbside", which means the tank will be delivered to the kerb only and not positioned further. Should you have specific delivery requirements or restrictions, please contact us to discuss.
Tanks over 2,500L — articulated lorry, customer offload
These tanks are delivered on an articulated vehicle (approximately 16.5m long × 2.6m wide × 3m high) which has no offloading on board. It is the customer's responsibility to offload the tank, which may require a telehandler or forklift.
Curtain-sided vehicles are also used, so please note that if there are obstacles or overhanging branches on the road to the delivery site, the driver may refuse to drive to the location due to the risk of damaging the vehicle. Please let us know about any obstructions before delivery so we can arrange alternative transport.
18-tonne tail-lift HGV
This vehicle is roughly the size of the largest bin lorries — approximately 8.2m long × 2.6m wide × 4m high, and often curtain-sided. If there are overhanging branches, these vehicles will not attempt the route, so a smaller vehicle should be requested.
Tanks are lowered to the ground but not positioned, as this is a kerbside delivery. If a smaller vehicle is required, email sales@fueltankshop.co.uk quoting your order number and name.
HIAB delivery
HIAB delivery is available but must be requested, and carries an additional cost. Email sales@fueltankshop.co.uk quoting your order number and name, and we'll come back to you with a price.
Accessories
Most accessories are delivered within 1–3 working days. Certain products and postcodes may take longer — check the product page for current information. If you need them sooner we can sometimes offer a next-day service; please contact us to discuss. If an item is out of stock we'll advise the expected lead time, and you're free to cancel for a full refund.
Returns Information
Customers may return items within 14 calendar days, as set out in section 7 of our Terms & Conditions.
All items must be returned unused. Refunds cannot be issued for used or previously installed items.
Please be aware that returning a tank can be complicated and expensive, so do check you're ordering the correct item — we strongly suggest checking the dimensions carefully before you buy.
