The environmental impact of commercial oil tank removal and disposal

Ensuring a greener future through responsible practices

In today’s world, environmental responsibility is not just an option but a necessity. At Ashwaste Environmental, we understand the significant impact that proper commercial oil tank removal and disposal can have on our environment. With over 40 years of experience, we are committed to providing reliable, efficient, and eco-friendly waste management solutions across Essex and beyond. Our licensed waste carriers ensure that every step of the process meets the highest environmental standards, safeguarding our planet for future generations.

Understanding the Environmental Impact

Oil tanks, if not properly managed, pose a severe risk to the environment. Leakage or spillage from old or damaged oil tanks can contaminate soil and groundwater, leading to long-term environmental damage. This contamination can affect local ecosystems, harm wildlife, and even pose health risks to humans. Therefore, the removal and disposal of commercial oil tanks require meticulous attention and expertise to prevent any environmental hazards.

Our Approach to Oil Tank Removal and Disposal

At Ashwaste Environmental, we follow a comprehensive approach to oil tank removal and disposal that prioritises environmental protection. Our process includes:

Assessment and Planning: We begin with a thorough assessment of the site and the condition of the oil tank. This step helps us plan the safest and most efficient removal process, minimising any risk of spillage or leakage.
Safe Removal: Our team of experts uses specialised equipment to safely remove the oil tank from the site. We ensure that all residual oil is drained and contained before the tank is moved, preventing any contamination.
Eco-friendly Disposal: Once the tank is removed, we transport it to a certified disposal facility. Here, the tank is processed and recycled according to environmental regulations, ensuring that no harmful substances are released into the environment.
Site Restoration: After the removal, we restore the site to its original condition, ensuring that there are no remnants of contamination. This step is crucial for maintaining the ecological balance of the area.
