An above-ground secondary containment unit for storage tanks is comprised of a rigid base and upwardly extending side and end walls. Side cover shields are mounted to the top of the side walls by way of hinges and are intended to contact a side surface of the storage tank thus minimizing or preventing the entry of precipitation or debris into the unit while the tank is in place. End cover shields are mounted to the top of the end walls using a nut and bolt arrangement and slots in the shield allowing for lateral adjustment of the shields with respect to an end surface of tanks of varying sizes and configurations. These shields similarly minimize or prevent the entry of precipitation and debris into the unit. The walls of the unit are tapered so that one unit may be nested within another similarly shaped unit for convenient storage and to permit shipment of multiple units at the same time. Linear tie-down straps are mounted to one side wall and extend across the top of the unit to the other side wall in order to secure a tank in place. The whole unit may be mounted on skids to allow transport either alone, or in combination with a tank secured by the tie-down straps.
