A wheeled fuel tank includes an elongated container having a hollow interior enclosed by a bottom wall, two side walls, a front wall, a back wall and a top wall. A fill spout is disposed on the container for filling the container with a fuel. A first opening is located in the container for allowing an outflow of the fuel. A reinforcing chamber extends through the container from the front wall to the back wall for restricting an expansion of the container and increasing its strength. An axle is rotatably mounted on the back wall of the container and a respective one of a pair of wheels is mounted on a respective end of the axle for enabling the container to be wheeled to a desired location. Preferably the container also includes a handle which is integrally mounted thereon. The handle can include first and second rearwardly extending ears, which are defined by the rear wall and a respective one of the side walls of the container, and a crossbar extending between the ears and being of one piece therewith.
