Spec'd Right Before It Ships — Or We Don't Ship It

Spec'd Right Before It Ships — Or We Don't Ship It

The wrong containment berm at a rail car offload station means pellets hitting the ground, an EPA walkthrough that stalls your operation, and cleanup costs that dwarf the price of the right unit. Tank Vault eliminates that risk. Before your Railcar Pellet Pond ships, we verify the sizing, liner compatibility, and drainage configuration against your site requirements. If the 4' x 6' footprint doesn't match your rail car available or the PVC liner isn't compatible with your pellet type, we flag it before the order processes. No guessing. No returns. No explaining to an inspector why the berm was undersized for the job.

Deploy in Seconds — No Assembly, No Frame, No Delays

Deploy in Seconds — No Assembly, No Frame, No Delays

Rail car offloading doesn't wait for berm setup. The Ultratech Railcar Pellet Pond unfolds and is ready the moment you place it. There's no frame to assemble, no brackets to tighten, and no tools required. The 4-inch sidewalls rise immediately, and the four built-in base sleeves accept the included rebar weights to anchor the unit against wind and workflow disruption. When the offload is complete, the berm folds flat with built-in carry handles for compact storage. For operations running multiple rail car transfers per shift, this is field-proven containment that keeps pace with your schedule instead of slowing it down.

Rainwater Drains — Pellets Stay Contained

Rainwater Drains — Pellets Stay Contained

Standing water in a containment berm creates a mess and hides what you're actually containing. The Railcar Pellet Pond solves this with a 6-inch diameter drain that lets rainwater pass through rapidly while the 4-inch sidewalls and heavy-gauge 40 oz PVC liner retain plastic pellets. The liner is chemical-resistant and built to handle repeated deployment cycles without cracking or degradation. A full PVC chemical compatibility guide is included with every order from Tank Vault so you can verify liner performance against your specific pellet composition before the unit goes into service. Five-year manufacturer warranty covers the liner against defects.

“We run three rail car offloads per week and these pellet ponds have held up for over a year now. Unfold, set it under the discharge, weight it down with the rebar — done. The drain keeps rainwater from pooling and the liner still looks solid. Beats the makeshift containment we were using before.”

Frequently Asked Questions

The Ultratech Railcar Pellet Pond is designed as a spill containment unit for plastic pellet handling at rail car offload points. The 40 oz PVC liner provides chemical-resistant containment, and the 4-inch sidewalls create a defined containment area. Whether this satisfies your specific EPA or state regulatory requirements depends on your site conditions, volume of pellets handled, and local jurisdiction. Tank Vault provides a free pre-offer spec review — contact us with your site details and we'll confirm whether this unit aligns with your compliance obligations before you order.
The drain opening is sized to allow rapid rainwater passage while the 4-inch sidewall height and the nature of plastic pellets prevent them from reaching the drain outlet under normal conditions. The rebar-weighted base keeps the berm stable and level so water flows consistently toward the drain without displacing contained material. For specific pellet sizes or unusual flow conditions, reference the included PVC chemical compatibility guide or contact Tank Vault for a pre-offer review of your application parameters.
The 4' x 6' Railcar Pellet Pond is the larger of two available sizes, providing increased coverage under rail car discharge points. The smaller 2.5' x 3' option offers 19 gallons of containment capacity for tighter available areas. The right size depends on your rail car available, discharge point width, and the volume of pellets you need to contain during transfer. Contact Tank Vault with your rail car specifications and we'll confirm the correct footprint before you order.
The 40 oz PVC liner is industrial-grade and designed for repeated deployment cycles. Ultratech backs it with a 5-year manufacturer warranty against defects. Actual field life depends on frequency of use, exposure to UV and chemicals, and storage conditions between deployments. The unit folds flat with built-in carry handles for protected storage when not in use. For operations running daily rail car transfers, the heavy-gauge construction is built to handle that cadence without premature liner degradation.
This berm is specifically designed and marketed for plastic pellet containment from rail cars. The 40 oz PVC liner does have broad chemical resistance — a full compatibility guide ships with every order from Tank Vault. However, the 4-inch sidewall height and 6-inch drain configuration are optimized for solid pellet retention with rainwater drainage, not for liquid containment. If you need a liquid-compatible berm, contact Tank Vault and we'll direct you to the correct product for your application.
Every Railcar Pellet Pond ships with the berm unit, rebar weights for the four base sleeves, and the PVC chemical compatibility guide. The unit folds flat for compact shipping via LTL freight. Tank Vault ships free to your site — call or email if you need liftgate delivery, job-site drop, or inside delivery. Lead times vary by warehouse stock; contact us before ordering if you have a specific deadline and we'll confirm availability.
