Oil Tank Removal and Recycling Process:
- Before we can safely remove your tank, we need to make sure it’s completely free of hazardous materials.
- Our experienced team will inspect your tank to determine its contents. It’s important to know that even if your oil tank’s gauge shows empty, it’s still possible that flammable oil and gases are inside the tank, creating a potential safety risk during removal.
- Any hazardous materials will be removed and oil tank cleaned prior to removal.
- We use a range of methods to safely and efficiently remove your oil tank with minimal disruption to your property.
- For tanks installed in remote areas, or tanks that have been built over since installation, we can use advanced cutting methods to safely remove the tank into pieces.
- After we’ve removed your tank, we’ll take it to our recycling facility.
- Hazardous materials removed from the tank will be safely disposed of following all environmental regulations.
- Depending on your requirements, we can either install a replacement tank in the same place as your old oil tank, or fill in the area.
- If you’re building an extension to your home, our experienced team can also relocate your tank on your property.
Waste Oil Removal and Recycling Process:
- Once we receive your call, a member of our experienced team will arrange a site visit to inspect the oil tank
- The tank will then be drained to one of our portable storage tanks to be transported away for recycling.
- Depending on the level of contamination the oil can then be filtered and re-used or recycled.
- If you intend to use your tank again, it can be cleaned and checked thoroughly and filled with new oil.
- If you are looking to move away from this type of heating system, then the tank can be decommissioned and removed.
