Oil Tank Removal During a Newark Real Estate Transaction
Underground oil tanks can quickly become a major issue when a property is being bought or sold. On this Newark project, our crew removed a 550-gallon underground tank so the transaction could keep moving forward with clear documentation of the work performed.
Simple Tank Services works with homeowners, buyers, sellers, real estate agents, and attorneys throughout Newark and Essex County on oil tank removals tied to property sales.

What Happens After the Tank Is Removed?
Once the tank is removed, the tank and excavation are evaluated for holes, staining, odors, or other evidence of a release. If no holes or contamination are observed, the required removal documentation can be prepared for township permit closeout. If a hole or suspected contamination is found, soil sampling can be used to determine the actual petroleum levels before deciding the next step.
