Oil Tank Recycling
As a company committed to environmental stewardship, we are always looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact and minimise our carbon footprint. One of the areas we are focused on is the disposal of your old plastic heating fuel oil tanks, whether they are single skinned or bunded.
A lot of heating oil service operations in UK have no sustainable way to dispose of the old plastic heating fuel oil tanks they are contracted to remove. Many of these tanks are typically land-filled and some even incinerated, which released harmful pollutants into the air and water. However, we at LV Fuel Services believe there is a better way
A Sustainable Solution for Fuel Tank Disposal
With the growing awareness of environmental issues, businesses are increasingly looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact. One area where this is particularly important is in the disposal of plastic fuel tanks.
We are proud to do it right
We are proud to be one of the few companies in the UK in the oil tank services sector that uses in-house plastic shredding machines to dispose of plastic heating fuel oil tanks responsibly. After cutting the large tank into large flat pieces, on your site if the tank cannot be removed from your property in one piece, we then feed these sections and slices into our hungry shredder in order to process these pieces into pellets, which can then be recycled or used to create new products. We store these pellets in large bags in our yard and periodically send them to a recycling company as the raw material from which to manufacture a range of useful things. Importantly, the whole process is tracked and traceable.
The benefits of using this process are numerous. By recycling plastic fuel tanks, we can reduce the amount of waste going to landfills, conserve natural resources, and protect the environment from harmful pollutants. That was you can rest assured that your old tank hasn’t ended up creating a source of pollution somewhere.
Time for its 10,000 recycled tank service !
Recently, our shredding machine’s high usage led to a need for a big maintenance service overhaul. Like a large vehicle, it contains numerous moving parts that wear out and need replacing periodically, especially as we seem to be running it every day at the moment due to demand.
We are committed to ensuring that our equipment is in top condition so that we can continue to provide our customers with the high-quality services they deserve. We are also committed to providing our customers with the peace of mind that comes with knowing that their plastic heating fuel oil tanks are being disposed of responsibly. That’s why we offer certificates of disposal for every tank we shred.
Environmental Benefits of Plastic Shredding Machines
There are many environmental benefits to using plastic shredding machines to dispose of plastic fuel tanks. Some of the benefits include:
Reduced landfill waste: Landfills are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. By recycling plastic fuel tanks, we can reduce the amount of waste going to landfills.
Reduced air pollution: When plastic fuel tanks are incinerated, they release harmful pollutants into the air. Shredding plastic fuel tanks instead avoids this emission.
Reduced water pollution: Plastic fuel tanks can leach harmful chemicals into water sources. Shredding plastic fuel tanks reduces the risk of water pollution.
Sustainability: Shredding plastic fuel tanks helps to conserve natural resources. By using recycled plastic, we can reduce the need for virgin plastic production.
We therefore offer certificates of disposal for plastic fuel tanks. These certificates can be used to demonstrate to customers that the company is taking environmental responsibility seriously.
