Overview
Both entries are the same basic 32‑gallon polyethylene fuel tank on wheels with steel fixing points and 8‑inch rubber wheels. They’re designed to store and move petrol or diesel around a yard, workshop or marina and to make refuelling portable equipment easier.
The key distinction is pump type: one model includes a 12V DC transfer pump with an electrical hand gun and wired hose for powered transfer; the other uses a rotary manual pump that doesn’t need a power source and is straightforward to maintain.
That difference affects convenience, transfer speed, vehicle compatibility and what else you’ll need (for example, a 12V supply or battery clamps). Capacity, wheel size, material and basic dimensions are effectively the same, so choose mainly by how you plan to transfer fuel.
Below we summarise who each option suits, list the most useful features and pros/cons, then finish with a concise buying guide to help match pump type to common use cases.

#1 VEVOR Fuel Caddy, 32 Gallon, Portable Fuel Storage Tank On-Wheels, with 12V DC Transfer Pump, Gasoline Diesel Fuel Container with 8.2 ft Hose, Flow Rate 7L/min, for Trucks, Boats, Lawn Mowers
This VEVOR 32‑gallon polyethylene fuel caddy pairs a capacious tank and sturdy on‑wheels chassis with a 12V DC transfer pump. The wired hose and oil gun let you move fuel with minimal manual effort; the manufacturer lists a maximum flow of around 7 L/min. Construction uses PE for the tank and a fixed carbon steel mount for the pump hardware, with 8‑inch rubber wheels to make movement across yards or boat ramps easier. It’s intended for portable refuelling of trucks, boats, mowers and similar equipment; check the retailer page for full installation and safety notes before use.
Key features
- Capacity: 32 US gallons (approx. 121 litres)
- 12V DC transfer pump included with wired hose (≈8.2 ft / 250 cm)
- Maximum listed flow about 7 L/min (subject to conditions)
- Fixed carbon steel pump mount and PE tank construction

#2 VEVOR Fuel Caddy, 32 Gallon, Portable Fuel Storage Tank On-Wheels, with Manual Transfer Pump, Gasoline Diesel Fuel Container for Cars, Lawn Mowers, ATVs, Boats, More, Red
This VEVOR 32‑gallon fuel caddy keeps the same PE tank, steel mounts and 8‑inch rubber wheels but swaps the 12V pump for a rotary manual transfer pump. The manual setup gives a maximum listed flow of about 7.8 L/min under the stated conditions and uses a larger internal hose diameter compared with the electric model. It’s well suited to users who want a fuss‑free, lower‑cost option that doesn’t rely on batteries or vehicle power — a pragmatic choice for occasional top‑ups and situations where electrical access is limited.
Key features
- Capacity: 32 US gallons (approx. 121 litres)
- Rotary manual transfer pump included for power‑free use
- Listed maximum flow approx. 7.8 L/min (conditions apply)
- Wired hose with φ19 mm internal diameter x 250 cm length
- Fixed carbon steel mount and PE tank material
- 8‑inch rubber wheels for on‑site mobility
Buying guide
Choose the 12V transfer model if you regularly move larger volumes and want quicker, hands‑off filling — you’ll need a compatible 12V source (vehicle battery or separate power supply) and basic electrical caution. Pick the manual rotary pump if you value simplicity, lower purchase cost and easier field repairs; manual pumps are less dependent on vehicle power and are fine for occasional top‑ups. For storage and transport, check local regulations for portable fuel containers and ensure correct venting and grounding when pumping. Consider hose length and nozzle type for the equipment you’ll fill, and remember maintenance: filters, hose checks and safe storage extend service life. Finally, confirm exact shipping, warranty and included accessories on the retailer page before buying.
FAQs
Can these caddies carry both petrol and diesel?
The manufacturer lists both petrol and diesel for these polyethylene tanks. Always check the product page and follow local regulations for storing and transporting flammable liquids.
Do I need any additional equipment to use the 12V pump?
You’ll need a 12V supply — typically vehicle battery clamps or a suitable power pack. Also ensure correct polarity and avoid long continuous runs to prevent battery drain; consult the product manual for electrical safety.
Our recommended choice
For most users who want speed and convenience when refuelling trailers, generators or boats, the 12V DC transfer pump model is the recommended pick. If you prefer simplicity, lower initial cost and total independence from a power source, the manual pump version is a sensible alternative.
