Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

Answers about products, compliance references, delivery, leasing, and custom systems.

Products

Hudson supplies double-wall containerized fuel stations in 10,000 L, 25,000 L, 40,000 L, and 60,000 L, plus fully custom stations configured to project requirements. For a capacity not listed, contact us to discuss a custom configuration.
A double-wall tank has a second containment wall around the primary tank, so that a leak in the primary wall is contained by the outer wall rather than reaching the ground. Whether a site requires double-wall containment depends on the jurisdiction and use.
Tanks are commonly used for diesel and similar fuels, but fuel compatibility depends on the specific configuration and intended use. Contact Hudson Fuel Tanks for confirmed compatibility for your application rather than assuming a given fuel is suitable.
Dispensing and metering can be configured on many systems. Specific pump and dispensing options depend on the configuration. Contact Hudson Fuel Tanks for confirmed dispensing options for the system you're considering.
Yes. Capacity, layout, dispensing, containment, access, and monitoring can be configured on custom systems. Final engineering and specifications require consultation and written confirmation.

Compliance

UL 142 and CAN/ULC-S601 are standards that apply to above-ground steel tanks for flammable and combustible liquids in the United States and Canada respectively. Hudson products are available in configurations designed to meet applicable requirements under these standards.
No. We do not claim that every tank is automatically certified under both standards. Which standards and certifications apply depends on the selected configuration, site, jurisdiction, and intended use, and are confirmed per project.
Local installation requirements are determined by the applicable authorities and codes in your jurisdiction. Customers are responsible for confirming and meeting local requirements unless otherwise agreed. We recommend confirming with the relevant local authority.
Permitting requirements vary by location, configuration, and use. Customers are generally responsible for permits and site requirements unless agreed otherwise. Check with your local authority for what applies to your installation.

Delivery

We deliver across Canada and to selected United States markets from our Abbotsford, British Columbia base. Delivery feasibility and timing depend on system size, destination, access, regulations, and scheduling.
Yes. Many of the operations we serve are remote, and we regularly plan around seasonal roads, barge or sealift windows, winter access, and long haul distances. Share your site details and we'll plan the logistics with you.
Helpful details include the product and capacity, delivery location and site access, intended use, any applicable local requirements, and your timeline. The more you can share, the more accurate the quote.
Unloading and craning requirements vary by site and system. These are confirmed as part of the quote rather than assumed. Contact Hudson Fuel Tanks to confirm what's included for your delivery.

Leasing

Container fuel stations are available to lease in 10,000 L, 25,000 L, 40,000 L, and 60,000 L. For other capacities, contact us to discuss what may be available for your project.
Leasing are project-based. The term depends on your project and on availability. Contact Hudson Fuel Tanks with your timeline to confirm.
No. Lease availability depends on region, timing, and project requirements, and leasing are not stocked in every area. Contact us to check availability for your site.
We don't publish standard lease rates. Lease pricing depends on the system, term, location, delivery, and project details, and is provided by quote.

Custom Systems

Yes. Our 60,000 L containerized fuel station is a flagship system, and containerized configurations can be adapted to project requirements. Final engineering and specifications require consultation.
Dispensing, metering, and accessories can be configured on custom systems. Specific options are confirmed as part of the design and quote.
Yes. Custom and fixed systems can be configured for fleet and yard fuelling, with dispensing set up around how the operation runs.
Custom projects start with a conversation about your operation and site. From there we scope capacity, dispensing, containment, access, and monitoring, and confirm engineering and specifications before quoting.
