yeah it will - they're just the wrong shape, you could move the tank over the rear axle but it'll prob wallow around in the bends.

you'd be better off with a low lying 650ltr baffled tank, frame around it and mount a hose reel on top of the frame at both doors - that how our expert is laid out.

Is a 600 ltr IBC safe to use as a window cleaning tank being that it isn't baffled an all!?

Who has one ?

I have a 1000 litre un-baffled tank in my van. I only travel a maximum of 3 miles in day so no big problems with water splashing about. Its empty before I get anywhere!

apparently they are easy to baffle, under soil pies... just stack the tank full of them.
