This underground oil tank was in pretty bad shape as you can see. Still the house sold after we removed the tank and satisfied all the State requirements.
This underground oil tank was too close to the house foundation and the buyers wanted to keep the wooden ramp. With the State’s permission letter, we closed the tank in-place by filling it with concrete after it have been washed and emptied. With the tank brought into compliance, the property closed on schedule.

Another tank removal to prep a property for sale. It’s best to resolve this issue before the seller receives a buyer’s offer. If the tank isn’t brought up until after the offer, it can complicate the final sales negotiation and can sometime kill the deal.
Most heating oil tanks have been in the ground between 50 to 80 years. Too long!!! They corrode and develop holes easily because they are thin walled, bare steel, tanks. It’s past time to tank them out!!!
Even aboveground oil tanks need to be handled with care and closed properly (i.e. prevent fume ignition with dry ice, cut open, pumped, washed clean, and removed with a disposal manifest.)
