Tank Removal Tips for Mendota, IL

How does oil tank removal work?

First, the tank and any connected piping must be emptied and carefully cleaned so there aren't any remaining oil and vapors. If there aren't any signs that the tank leaked, it is then considered closed and is ready to be removed.

Then, the tank can be removed. Once the tank is cleaned and closed, it can be disconnected, dug out from the earth in the case of underground tanks, lifted onto a trailer, and hauled away to be properly disposed of and reused/recycled if possible.
