Underground domestic fuel tank removal in Canterbury
The majority of domestic heating oil tanks are usually stored beneath ground. This is not always the case, however, which is why our domestic fuel tank removal in Canterbury usually begins by visiting the site.

Like all of our services, this will be carried out in the easiest and most affordable way. Generally, our removal service begins by cleaning out the remaining contents of the old tank and then removing it.
Cutting down your fuel tank
Whilst most tanks can be removed in one piece, in some cases it will need to be cut down. Should this need to be done, our team will use cold cutting and spark-free tools to ensure safety throughout the service. Once removed, our team will take it away so that it is recycled. We also recycle large amounts of other materials removed throughout the service with our trusted recycling partners where possible.
Once we have finished the removal service, you will be provided with a gas free certificate, certificate of disposal and other documents.
