A homeowner in Bridgewater, NJ recently had an old 550-gallon underground oil tank sitting quietly beneath their yard for years. It was no longer in use, but it still posed a potential risk of rust, leaks, and soil contamination. Our team was called in to safely remove the tank and take care of the entire job from start to finish.
The Process: Careful and Thorough
Before touching anything, we started with a site check to confirm the tank’s exact location and condition. Once we had a clear picture, our crew carefully excavated around the tank, making sure not to disturb nearby structures, pipes, or utility lines. Our underground oil tank removal process was handled carefully from start to finish.
The tank was then emptied, cleaned, and safely removed from the ground. We also checked the surrounding soil closely to look for any signs of leaks or contamination. Thankfully, everything came back clean, so no extra soil remediation was needed. Once the tank was out, we filled the hole back in and left the property looking neat and ready to use again.
