Tank Removals at JD Tank Company

If you have a tank abandonment in place or are in need of general service for tank removals, JD Tank Company will determine the best way for the tank to be removed from the property. If inside the home the tank will be cut and removed of its contents properly. Carried out by hand, as to prevent any accidents. The holes from the vent and fill pipes will be filled with matching materials where they penetrate the outside wall. Outside above ground oil tanks are cut and cleaned using the same process but in most cases are removed as a whole.

For underground oil tanks, although not required by the state of NY, can cost you money in the long run if you have paid for an abandonment instead. Here's the reason why: Abandonments are usually a bit cheaper due to less equipment being utilized. If you decide to sell your home and the new buyer is concerned about the tank it may hinder your sale and you now have to pay again to have it removed. Tanks that have been properly filled and now have to be removed are costly. Our suggestion is always removal unless deemed absolutely necessary to leave in place.

When the site of the removal is uncovered, tank is now exposed. It is professionally cleaned and properly contained. It is examined for holes and where required seen by your town inspector (all of which is handled by JD Tank Company). The excavating contractor will be at ease for now for the land is brought up to grade with clean fill. The tank is then hauled away and properly disposed of along with its contents. Vent and fill pipes are removed and the removal is complete.
