Express 800 Water Wagon
800 Gallon Express Trailer
High-Capacity DOT Water Wagon – No CDL Required*
The 800 Gallon Express DOT Water Trailer gives you more capacity than a 550 while still being towable without a CDL in many areas.* It’s a favorite with contractors, rental fleets and municipalities that need reliable dust control, soil compaction and job-site water delivery on and off the highway.
Built around an 800-gallon poly elliptical leg tank, tandem drop axles and a DOT-approved trailer frame, this unit includes a Honda® engine, 2" Tsurumi® pump, galvanized spray bar and fire hose so you can spray roads, pack subgrade, cool concrete saws or handle light fire support with one trailer.

Express 800 DOT Water Trailer Overview
The 800 Gallon Express Water Wagon is built for crews that need more gallons between refills without jumping up to a 1,000+ gallon rig. Drop axles lower the tank’s center of gravity for stable towing, while 16" tires on Accu-Lube hubs and tandem 6,000 lb leaf-spring axles are sized for regular use on gravel and paved roads. A 4 HP Honda engine and 2" aluminum Tsurumi pump move water quickly through galvanized suction and discharge manifolds. The rear spray bar covers up to a 25' swath for road and pad work, and the included fire hose gives you controlled stream flow for spot watering, wash-downs or small fire hot spots.
