What Sets Our Bakkie Skid Tanks Apart?
Custom Fit, Built to Last
We know every business and bakkie setup is a little different. That’s why each of our bakkie skid tanks is custom designed to fit securely on any bakkie. No rattling, no balancing acts, and you won’t be left fiddling with makeshift straps on the side of the road. We make sure your new skid tank is built for the way you work.
Both the 500 L and 1000 L bakkie skid tank models are moveable by hand or forklift, so loading and offloading is a breeze. If you’ve ever tried to manhandle a bulky tank into place, you’ll know how much easier a properly designed skid tank can make your life.
Designed for Diesel, Fuel, or Water – Versatility You Can Trust
Whether you’re hauling diesel for on-site equipment, water for agricultural needs, or need to transport fuel for generators, we’ve got a tank that’ll do the job safely and efficiently. At M&M Fabrications, we manufacture:
- Diesel bakkie skid tanks for reliable fuelling in the field
- Water skid tanks for irrigation, cleaning, or emergency use
- Fuel skid tanks for multi-purpose applications
Each tank is crafted to the highest standards, using materials and welding methods proven to last, even in tough African conditions.
Moveable by Hand or Forklift – Easy to Relocate, Anywhere
Not every job site is the same, and sometimes you need to move your tank fast. Both our 500 L and 1000 L bakkie skid tanks are designed for real-world handling. If you’ve got a couple of extra hands or a forklift nearby, moving the tank from vehicle to site is no hassle. It’s these details that make our tanks a staple for businesses all over Gauteng and beyond.

Out on the farm or on-site, fuel and water need to go wherever the work is. A bakkie skid tank means less time wasted driving back for refills and more time getting the job done. Many of our customers in agriculture and construction say a skid tank pays for itself just in reduced downtime.
Transport and Fleet Managers
Managing a fleet? A reliable diesel skid tank keeps your vehicles and machines fuelled up, whether you’re at the depot or out in the bush. If you’re running more than one vehicle, chat to us about custom tank setups or even our diesel trailers for larger fuel storage.
Emergency and Remote Operations
From remote construction to emergency response, access to fuel or water can be the difference between smooth operations and expensive delays. Our skid tanks help teams stay ready for anything.

When it comes to picking a skid tank, think about:
- Capacity: 500 L for light use, 1000 L for heavy hitters

Bakkie Skid Tanks – FAQs
Can I move a skid tank myself, or do I need a forklift?

Absolutely. Each tank is custom designed to fit securely on your bakkie, so you won’t need to improvise with tie-downs or brackets.
