Do diesel fuel trailers need baffles in Australia?
Yes, in most cases diesel fuel trailers require internal baffles to safely transport fuel on Australian roads. Baffles reduce liquid surge, improve stability while braking and cornering, and help comply with load restraint and dangerous goods transport requirements.
For larger capacity diesel trailers, especially those used in construction, mining or agriculture, baffles are strongly recommended and often required to meet compliance standards. Rapid Spray diesel fuel trailers are engineered with appropriate internal design features to improve safety and road stability.

How long can diesel be stored in a fuel tank?
The ideal storage life of diesel fuel depends on several factors, including:
- Storage conditions: Cool, dark, and dry environments are best. Exposure to sunlight and heat can accelerate fuel degradation.
- Fuel quality: Fresh, high-quality diesel will generally store for longer periods.
- Presence of contaminants: Water and dirt contamination can significantly shorten the lifespan of stored diesel.
Generally, under optimal conditions, clean diesel can last for up to 12 months in storage. However, it’s always recommended to consult your fuel supplier or refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations for specific storage advice.
Can you put petrol in a diesel pod?
Absolutely not! Petrol and diesel are completely different fuels, and using the wrong fuel in your engine can cause serious damage. Rapid Spray’s diesel pods and tanks are specifically designed for storing and dispensing diesel fuel only. Using a diesel pod for petrol can also be a fire hazard.
Always ensure you are using the correct fuel type for your equipment and that you clearly label your diesel storage containers to avoid any confusion.
What size diesel trailer do I need for construction?
The right size diesel trailer depends on your daily fuel usage, site mobility, and how often you refuel equipment.
For small construction crews running a few machines, trailers in the 1000L to 2000L range are often sufficient. Medium to large civil sites typically require 1500L to 3000L capacity to reduce downtime and refuelling frequency.
If you are operating multiple excavators, skid steers, generators or pumps, a larger capacity trailer can significantly improve productivity by reducing fuel runs and keeping machinery operating longer.
Are Rapid Spray diesel trailers ADR compliant?
Rapid Spray diesel trailers are designed and manufactured in Australia to meet relevant Australian Standards and transport safety requirements. Compliance depends on the specific trailer configuration, capacity and intended use.
For certain fuel transport applications, additional ADR requirements may apply. We recommend confirming your specific transport conditions and intended use so our team can ensure the correct configuration for your compliance needs.
How much fuel can I legally transport?
The amount of diesel you can legally transport depends on trailer capacity, vehicle towing limits, state regulations, and dangerous goods thresholds.
In Australia, diesel is classified as a combustible liquid rather than a highly flammable liquid, which means different transport limits may apply compared to petrol. However, once volumes increase, additional compliance requirements may apply.
Always ensure:
• Your trailer is within legal towing capacity
• The load is properly restrained
• You comply with local state transport regulations
If you are unsure, it is best to confirm with your local transport authority or speak with our team for guidance.
