Freight Conditions

As each site is different, we will at the time of organising the delivery, try to highlight any difficulties that may hinder the delivery process. The Tank Factory’s obligation is to deliver the poly tank to your property and cannot guarantee (due to difficult access, power lines or steep terrain etc) that the tank will be placed directly onto the tank site. Once arriving on site, the delivery driver will assess what is possible and safe for all involved. If assistance cannot be provided then the hire or use of any equipment needed is at the purchasers’ expense and will need to be arranged once the driver has left the site. Our water tank deliveries are scheduled Monday to Friday only – we do not deliver on weekends.

Hi Russell, As discussed on the phone, I just wanted to commend the delivery team who delivered and installed our tanks. Jim and the boys were very professional and are a credit to the Tankworks team (who deliver the steel range of tanks for The Tank Factory). Our property has a steep driveway and Jim manoeuvred the truck so skilfully, his driving skills are outstanding which allowed the tanks to be unloaded with minimal fuss. They worked cooperatively and professionally. Thank you to all, We are very happy to see our tanks on site and delivered safely, From, Mary Klazema

On 1-Oct, two 5,000 gallon tanks were delivered to our rural property outside Dorrigo. I merely write to compliment you on your delivery team of Bert & Mick who are a credit to your company. Firstly, they kept us informed of their expected arrival time. Secondly, we found them to be top “can do” blokes who skilfully off-loaded both tanks precisely where we wanted them. It is always a pleasure to interface with men of this calibre. Thank you Rowley & Clare, Dorrigo, NSW

"Considering the quality of your product, I believe I received the best available product for a good price"
 — Alex from Stokers Siding
I recently purchased a tank online (Inv 6692) that was delivered by Tweed Tanks last week. This is the 4th Duraplas tank I have purchased. I wish to commend the delivery driver on his prompt & professional service. The experience was positive & exceeded any expectation I had. I would also like to commend you on delivering a quality product. The price was not the cheapest but was extrememly competative & I chose to support a local company. Considering the quality of your product, I believe I received the best available product for a good price. I will continue to recommend & use your products. Regards, Alex from Stokers Siding
