Tank laydown skid
A certified base and spill tray for two transportable tanks
Transportable tanks need a fixed place to sit, somewhere to catch a spill, and a way to connect to the system they feed. The laydown skid provides all three. Two tanks sit side by side over a drip tray, so one can be in use while the other is exchanged.
