Underground Oil Tank Removal
Full decommissioning of buried heating oil tanks (USTs) in Salem under the Oregon DEQ HOT program. We locate, pump, cut, lift, and document, closing with a signed Decommissioning Report and lab-tested soil samples for the property file.
View service// 02Aboveground Oil Tank Removal
Removal of aboveground basement, crawl-space, and exterior oil tanks (ASTs) in Salem homes, including disconnect, sludge pump-out, cut-down for door access, and recycling at a Marion County scrap yard. Faster and cheaper than UST work.
View service// 03Tank Abandonment In Place
When a buried tank sits beneath a driveway, retaining wall, or addition that cannot be cut without significant collateral damage, Oregon DEQ permits decommissioning by abandonment in place. We pump, clean, fill with inert slurry, and document the work.
View service// 04Soil Testing & Contamination Cleanup
TPH-Dx, BTEX, and PAH sampling under DEQ protocol; if a release is confirmed, we expand the excavation, manifest impacted soil, and prepare the cleanup documentation DEQ needs to issue a No Further Action determination.
