FuelCube Models & Specifications
Choose the right Western Global FuelCube for your commercial operation - 500, 1000, or 2000 gallon UL142 double-wall tanks. Not just equipment selection: choosing the FuelCube model that optimizes refill frequency, operational continuity, and total cost for your fleet, jobsite, or facility.
How to Choose the Right FuelCube Model
FuelCube model selection determines your operational rhythm: how many days between refills, how often you are coordinating deliveries, and whether you have fuel buffer for unexpected consumption spikes. Fox Fuel Pro helps you choose the model that balances capacity, site footprint, and refill frequency for your specific operation.
Key Decision Inputs
- Daily fuel consumption: Total gallons consumed across all equipment and vehicles per day (peak, not average)
- Desired refill frequency: Preferred days between deliveries (7 to 14 day target for most operations)
- Equipment count and types: Number of vehicles, heavy equipment units, generators, forklifts fueled from tank
- Site constraints: Ground conditions, delivery truck access, footprint available, local setback requirements
- Project or operational timeline: Short term projects versus permanent installations versus seasonal operations
Why Model Sizing Matters
Undersized tanks: Require frequent deliveries (increased delivery costs), higher runout risk, operational disruption from constant coordination.
Oversized tanks: Unnecessary capital or rental costs, excess site footprint, fuel aging concerns for low consumption operations.
Right sized tanks: Optimal 10 to 14 day refill cycle, cost efficiency, operational continuity, buffer for consumption spikes.

FuelCube Acquisition Programs: Loan, Rental, Purchase
Every FuelCube model (500, 1000, 2000) is available through three commercial programs. Choose the model that fits your operations, then choose the program structure that fits your financial and timeline requirements.
Loan Program
Fox Fuel Pro provides FuelCube at no upfront cost in exchange for exclusive fuel supply agreement. Equipment loan paired with ongoing fuel delivery service.
Best For:
- Long term operations (12 or more months) with consistent fuel consumption
- Customers prioritizing zero capital outlay and operational fuel expense
- Operations valuing integrated fuel supply and equipment in a single program
Structure: No equipment purchase or rental fee. Fuel supplied by Fox Fuel Pro at competitive per gallon pricing. Equipment returned at program conclusion.
Rental Program
Month to month FuelCube rental with no fuel commitment. Customer sources fuel from any supplier, including Fox Fuel Pro, competitors, or retail.
Best For:
- Short term projects with defined timelines (3 to 12 months)
- Customers with existing fuel supplier contracts or relationships
- Seasonal operations requiring flexibility to scale up or down
- Operations with uncertain fuel volume or project duration
Structure: Monthly rental fee based on model size (300 to 1,000 dollars per month typical range). Customer manages fuel procurement from any source. Cancel with 30 day notice.
Purchase Program
Buy FuelCube outright as capital asset. Own equipment, depreciate on balance sheet, source fuel from any supplier with zero ongoing obligations.
Best For:
- Permanent facilities and long term operations (10 or more years)

Monitoring & Fuel Management
Real time FuelCube telemetry for tank level visibility, consumption analytics, automated delivery scheduling, and theft detection. Dashboard access for multi site fleet operations and facilities management.
Fleet Fueling & Delivery
Ongoing fuel supply for FuelCube tanks via scheduled bulk delivery. Pair monitoring with delivery service for fully automated refill scheduling. Fox Fuel Pro dispatch receives telemetry alerts and schedules deliveries proactively.
Typical complete program: FuelCube 1000 (model selection) + Loan Program (equipment structure) + Placement Service (deployment) + Monitoring (telemetry) + Fleet Fueling (ongoing fuel supply) = zero hassle on site fuel storage with complete operational visibility.
How Fox Fuel Pro Guides FuelCube Model Selection
You do not have to self diagnose the right FuelCube model. Fox Fuel Pro evaluates your actual consumption patterns, site constraints, operational timeline, and budget to recommend the optimal configuration and remove the guesswork from fuel storage planning.
Site Assessment Process
Consumption Analysis
We review your current fuel purchasing records, equipment inventory, and operational schedule to calculate actual daily consumption. This uses real usage data rather than estimates.
Site Evaluation
On site visit to assess ground conditions, delivery truck access, footprint constraints, local setback requirements, and placement feasibility for each model size.
Model Recommendation
Based on consumption, site constraints, and operational goals, we recommend the FuelCube model that optimizes refill frequency, cost efficiency, and operational buffer.
Program Structure Guidance
We explain Loan, Rental, and Purchase options in the context of your timeline and financial priorities. This helps you choose the program structure that aligns with your business model.
Model Selection Outcomes
"Fox Fuel recommended the FuelCube 1000 based on our daily consumption of 75 gallons across three excavators and two loaders. We refill every two weeks instead of making daily retail fuel runs. The sizing was perfect. We never run out, and we are not paying for excess capacity we do not use. Monitoring integration means Fox Fuel schedules deliveries automatically when we hit 25 percent remaining."
