Underground Storage Tank Removal
ORTAM’s highly trained team is ready to provide you with professional pumping, cleaning, dismantling, and disposal services for underground storage tanks.
Underground Storage tank removal services
Underground storage tanks (USTs) were in wide use in the 50’s and 60’s, as an oil-based heating source for commercial and residential properties. Today, they are obsolete and potentially hazardous. Safely removing underground storage tanks from your property is required if you are selling or buying, and must resolve any underlying problems on the site to fulfill financial conditions for lenders. Or you may have discovered a tank buried on your property and wish to remove it for environmental safety. In either case, our team is highly trained to provide you with professional pumping, cleaning, dismantling, and disposal services.
How We Remove UST’s
Removing Underground Storage Tanks is an intrusive process, requiring excavation and digging. Our process includes:
A site visit to thoroughly examine the area and plan out digging locations
The excavation and removal of the UST
Analysis of soil to ensure there are no residual contaminants in the site

Underground Storage Tank Removal in 3 Steps
ORTAM conducts UST removal using strict quality control procedures, the most effective equipment and maximum safety practices.
1 - Inspect & Review
Our team reviews previous studies and all relevant historical data on the site, and thoroughly inspects the property to ensure safe and effective removal.
2 - Locate
In some cases, you might not know the exact location of the UST. Our ultra modern scan detection units will quickly locate the tank and any infrastructure it is contained in.
3 - Disposal & Analysis
Once the tank has been located, our qualified professionals will remove it and dispose of it. Our expertise in managing flammable content also minimizes the risk of soil and groundwater contamination. Following the disposal, we will conduct an analysis of the soil to ensure there has been no contamination of the site during the removal. A report will then be produced with the plan and certificate of analysis.
