So if you are transporting gas with your pickup truck- you should be really careful- you should reassure that there are no gas cans sliding, any shovel blades, or any other tool that can cause a serious problem.
It is also important to notify that the maximum of portable fuel cans that a pickup truck is allowed to transport should be of a maximum capacity of 5 gallons. More precisely gas can only be transported in 5-gallon portable gas cans- but only with a limit of 4 cans per 3/4 ton truck.
All trucks manufacturers have versions of 3/4 ton trucks that are modified as service vehicles and one of those vehicles is the 3/4 ton truck specially designed to operate with gas tanks. These kinds of trucks are used for:
- Loading and unloading
- Positioning or
- Gas tank transportation to the required location.
Last but not least: The truck driver that wants to transport gas or any other hazardous material should have obtained CDL License with a Hazardous Materials Endorsement.
