Storing fuel on site without a bunded bowser increases the risk of pollution, particularly near the coast and around Shoreham Harbour. If you’re searching for fuel bowser hire near me in Brighton, call 01273 596 979.
Do You Need a Bunded Fuel Bowser?
A bunded bowser captures diesel if the inner tank leaks. Near the coast, the River Adur and Shoreham Harbour, the consequences of a spill are severe. For sites running multiple diesel machines, a bowser eliminates repeated fuel deliveries. Best position: firm, level ground away from drains and watercourses. Call 01273 596 979.
Fuel Bowser Specifications
Bunded 250-gallon steel diesel bowsers. Bund meets 110% containment requirement. Hand pump or electric pump, hose and nozzle included. Forklift pockets for repositioning.
Full specifications for the fuel bowser range are listed in the Coppard online catalogue.

Do I need a bunded fuel bowser for my site?
A bunded fuel bowser is designed with secondary containment to help capture diesel if the inner tank leaks, making it a sensible choice for storing and refuelling plant on construction, agricultural and remote sites. GOV.UK’s oil-storage guidance for businesses explains that mobile bowsers used for business purposes may need secondary containment capable of holding at least 110% of the container’s capacity. Tell Coppard’s Brighton team how much fuel you expect to use, which machines need refuelling and how long the bowser will remain on site, and they can recommend a practical capacity for your operation.
