The table above is the geometry this page and its chart model; SCHÜTZ's published dimensions and weights for its 330 gal tote are further down.
Nominal rating versus real geometry
Rated 330 gal. Computed from the dimensions in the table above: 330.0 gal. The label and the geometry agree to within half a percent here.
| Contents | Density | Weight of contents | Metric |
|---|---|---|---|
| Water | 8.35 lb/gal | 2,754 lb | 1,249 kg |
| Diesel | 7.05 lb/gal | 2,326 lb | 1,055 kg |
| Gasoline | 6.30 lb/gal | 2,079 lb | 943 kg |
Densities are the reference values on our methodology page; add the empty vessel weight for a gross figure.
What is the same for every tank of this kind (handling, stacking and what the marking tells you, the standards behind IBC totes) is set out once on the sizes hub, in the IBC tote reference and the common questions for every tank.
FAQ
What are the dimensions of a 330 gallon IBC tote?
As modelled on this page: length 48 in, width 40 in, height 39.7 in. The manufacturer's published figures for this size are in the Manufacturer dimensions table.
How much does a full 330 gallon IBC tote weigh?
About 2,754 lb of water, or less for a hydrocarbon — the weight table above gives the figure for each liquid. Add the empty vessel weight for a gross figure.
Manufacturer dimensions
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 1,250 litres (330 US gal; sold as the 330 gal size) |
| Outside length × width × height | 1,200 × 1,000 × 1,350 mm (47.2 × 39.4 × 53.1 in) |
| Empty weight | 65 kg (143 lb) with steel pallet; 68 kg (150 lb) with plastic skid pallet |
These are outside dimensions of the cage and pallet; the 48 × 40 × 39.7 in box on this page is not a measured inside shape but a plain box sized to hold 330 gal, so use the gallon marks moulded into the bottle where they disagree, and note SCHÜTZ prints no brim-full volume.
