There are many manufacturers that offer a variety of traditional round tanks, slimline tanks, and underground tanks. It is important to understand the different types of rainwater tanks prior to choosing one that best suits your needs.

Slimline tanks

Thanks to the ever increasing demand for rainwater storage solutions in rural and urban Australia, you will find an array of designs which includes slimline tanks.

These tanks are designed to fit down the side of a home so that it occupies minimal space and can be easily installed.
