Installing a 2000-liter water tank by yourself might sound impossible—but I’m here to show you that it’s not only doable, it’s actually not that hard. With some basic landscaping skills, a few smart moves, and a little sweat equity, you can handle large-scale infrastructure solo.
In this video, I take you through the full process of how I installed a massive 2000-liter polyethylene water tank completely by hand. No machinery, no team—just me, some tools, and a little patience. Whether you’re off-grid, living remote, or just like doing things yourself, this is a realistic example of what’s possible with a bit of grit and strategy.
🏞️ Here's what I cover in the video:
How I planned the tank location for stability and gravity-fed flow
Techniques for leveling and compacting the soil by hand
Building a simple but strong base using on-site materials
Moving and positioning a heavy water tank without power tools or help
How to check the tank's stability and prepare it for plumbing later
🌱 This tank is essential for off-grid living, especially where every drop of rain counts. Whether you’re building a small homestead, prepping for emergencies, or just trying to live more sustainably, this video shows that you can do it alone. It’s not about strength—it’s about leverage, balance, and using the terrain to your advantage.
💡 Why it matters:
Many people think large-scale projects like this require expensive equipment or teams of workers, but the truth is you can accomplish more than you think with your own two hands. This is part of a broader journey I'm documenting where I build infrastructure in remote areas using only hand tools, local materials, and lots of trial and error.
🛠️ Tools and materials used:
Shovel
Pickaxe
Level
Crushed rock and gravel (collected on site)
Wooden planks (for alignment and base leveling)
2000L water tank
Some rope and basic lifting tricks
🎬 This is part of my ongoing project: building a fully functional, off-grid homestead from scratch, proving that one person can still take charge of their own shelter, water, food, and energy.
