Rapid Fulfilment: How We Deliver Your Fuel Tanks Quickly

Customers rely on Western Global for a consistent supply of fuel that helps them complete projects on time and within budget, whether that’s a major construction site or an offshore wind farm. But how do we make that happen?

The answer is in our name – we have a global network of experts across the UK, Europe, and beyond, with local teams working closely with our partners to understand their needs. This way, we ensure that you’re prepared for anything, with enough fuel to power your site and finish the job.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens behind the scenes at Western Global, keep reading this guide. 

Choosing your fuel tank

If you’ve explored our range, you probably know the size and accessories you need. Your next step is to request a quote or contact us about any specific requirements.

From there, we’ll work together to find a solution that fits your project, jobsite, risks, and budget. We assess logistics and potential hazards to prepare for delivery, ensuring your tank complies with local regulations and matches your requirements. 

We Get to Work

Our customers have different needs and timelines for their projects. Some will place orders for multiple tanks months in advance, while others need practical fuel storage solutions immediately. Regardless of the turnaround time, we strive to deliver a solution that arrives on time.

We operate Western Global hubs around the world, dedicated to this purpose. Each hub serves as a base to ensure quick, safe delivery, while also providing you and your team with exceptional local customer service – there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.

Our UK headquarters in Yate is filled with our fuel tanks, ready to be shipped to your site. When you contact us, we check our inventory to confirm we have what you need. If not, our dedicated team at the Assembly Distribution Centre (ADC) in Poland will handle it. No fuel tank leaves this 45,000 sq ft facility without thorough inspection and testing. 

Quality assured

Before your product leaves our facility, we conduct a 3-Point Quality Check to ensure your tank meets both the global standards and our high internal standards. This is a three-step process where any work conducted is inspected by the fitter, a secondary fitter, and then one of our supervisors will do a third and final check. This thorough process ensures that your tank is delivered to the highest standard, with nothing slipping through the cracks. 

That’s why we offer an 8-year warranty – we’re confident in our attention to detail and believe your fuel tank will prove its value time and time again. 

Our next-generation fuel tanks are designed to handle the toughest conditions, from dusty desert worksites to confined urban spaces. Featuring a double-walled design with a built-in, weatherproof containment system, each tank guarantees that your fuel remains safe and uncontaminated, no matter where you are working.

They are also easy to inspect regularly, demonstrating time and again that your storage tank is of the highest quality. Of course, our 8-year warranty backs all of this. Read about fuel tank inspections or contact us if you have any questions.  

On the Road

Once we’ve completed thorough checks of your fuel tank and installed any additional accessories, it’s time for your order to leave our facility and head to your site.

Our assessments consider all the essentials to prepare your tank site: capacity, equipment needs, and safety considerations. In most cases, setting up your tank will be straightforward and can be communicated to your team. All you need to do is place your tank in a safe, accessible area and add fuel – we’ve handled the rest. From placing your order to tank delivery, it can take as little as 2 hours.

If your site is small or has logistical challenges, such as tight corners, tanks like our TransCube offer a practical solution. Their smart four-way fork pockets and corner brackets allow for forklift loading directly onto the site and enable stacking when empty to save space.

What’s next?

Once your fuel tank has passed quality checks and your accessories are installed, it’s time to leave our facility and start its journey to your location. We strive to deliver as quickly as possible – in some cases, within just 2 hours.

Upon arrival, all you need to do is add fuel – we’ve handled the rest.

 But what happens next?

Having your tank on site doesn’t mean our job is finished. Our expert team is always just a phone call away if you have questions about your fuel tank – whether it’s about compatibility with our accessories, ordering another fuel tank, or requesting an additional fuel pump. Projects evolve, and we’re here to help you streamline operations.
