Storage Tank Removal in Delaware

Improvements in storage tank technology have added many years to the lifespans of the storage tank. New fiberglass designs are extremely durable and corrosion-resistant and are designed to provide many years of quality service. However, the lifespan of a storage tank is still finite, and sooner or later it will need to be replaced. This is not a job that you can do yourself, and it’s also not a job that you should hire just anyone to do. You need a licensed company for storage tank removal in Delaware.

So why might you remove a storage tank? There are a number of reasons.

Leaking
Leaking storage tanks may have damage that is too great to repair. Corrosion is the cause of many leaks, and in addition to removing the tank, you will most likely be required to do environmental remediation. Tanks Direct can remove your leaking storage tank in Delaware.

It Doesn’t Meet Regulations
As regulations change, older tanks might not make it under the cutoff line. In order not to be found in violation of regulations, you may have to remove an old storage tank that no longer meets state, federal, or local regulations concerning storage tanks.

Age
You may want to consider removing a storage tank that is old as a preventative measure to ensure it does not develop a leak.

Closing of the Facility
If the facility on which the tank is located is being sold or is closing, any storage tanks on the property may need to be removed. Federal and state regulations give guidelines as to whether or not the storage tank needs to be removed.

For all of your storage tank removal needs in Delaware, you can trust Tanks Direct.
