Water tank trailer hire in Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays

Water tank trailer hire across Airlie Beach, Cannonvale, Proserpine, Bowen and the wider Whitsundays runs out of Hank’s. A 2000 litre water tank rides on the 12 by 7 flat top trailer with a Honda GX160 petrol pump and a 25 metre hose reel. The setup covers dust suppression, irrigation, site water, fire prep, cleaning and tank filling jobs across the region.

What the water tank trailer handles

The kit is built for working water moves, not light garden use. Construction and civil sites use it for dust suppression on dry days and for site water duty. Landscapers and rural property owners run it for irrigation on new plantings, pasture and garden beds. Rural and residential property owners use it for fire prep ahead of fire season, defending the block during dry spells, and topping up rainwater tanks when supply runs low. Cleaning jobs from vehicles, machinery, sheds and driveways through to washdowns after dirty work are all within scope.

The pump, tank and hose

The setup is built around a 2000 litre water tank carried on the 12 by 7 flat top trailer. The pump is a Honda GX160 petrol unit rated at 5HP with recoil start, sized for reliable cold starts and long run times on construction and rural jobs. Maximum flow is 680 litres per minute, which is real working pressure rather than residential trickle. The hose is a 25 metre heavy duty 19mm reel, fitted for length and pressure handling.

What you need to tow it

When loaded, the trailer carries 2000kg of water plus the tank, pump, hose reel and the trailer’s own tare. Total loaded weight sits around 3,000kg when full. The tow vehicle’s rated towing capacity needs to suit that figure. The trailer runs electric brakes, so the tow vehicle needs a compatible brake controller and a 7-pin flat plug. Most 4WDs, dual cab utes and large SUVs cover this comfortably; smaller vehicles may not handle it loaded.
