Underground Tank Removals

Underground oil tank removal may be required if you are a business owner, Realtor, Insurance Company or Home Owner. If you are selling a property you may need to prove that there are no underlying problems in order to satisfy a home inspector, or the potential new owners to obtain financing.

Specialized Onsite Services Inc. can provide the means to test for a buried tank and removal of the tank if discovered. Excavation of the tank will be done with care and efficiency. Once the tank is removed, soil samples are collected to identify any underlying contamination issues. If it is determined that the soils surrounding a buried tank are contaminated, our team can also be utilized for the removal of the impacted material.

The soil will be transported to a certified facility for contaminated soil. Once it is determined that all the impacted soil has been removed from the site, confirmatory or verification samples are collected for laboratory analysis. Assuming the site now meets the applicable MOE site condition standards the excavation site will be filled and your property restored.

If you have discovered an underground storage tank (UST) buried somewhere on your property? Not only is this a huge inconvenience, but it's also an environmental concern and must be handled by professionals. Call the SOS team for help.

Most of these old USTs are made of bare steel, which corrodes as time goes by, and leaks hazardous substances into the surrounding soil, water and environment. Often times, homeowners trying to sell their property are required to remove the underground storage tank before the sale is complete.
