About New Bedford Oil Tank Removal

Call (774) 389-4777

We are a locally owned oil tank removal company based right here in New Bedford, serving the whole South Coast since 2009. Not a franchise, not a call center routing your job to whoever is closest. When you call, you get the people who actually show up and do the work.

Our lead tech spent eleven years doing environmental excavation and tank work for a larger outfit up the highway before we started this company, which means the tricky part, the soil, the sampling, the state paperwork, is second nature here, not something we figured out on your job. That experience is the whole reason we can look at a stained shovel of dirt and tell you calmly what happens next.

Straight Talk About the Big Names

There are good regional companies out there, CommTank, Removal Pro, the national tank outfits, and picking one can feel overwhelming when they all promise the same thing. We are not going to knock them. What we will say is that we live in this city, we answer our own phone, and on a job where the price can swing on what is in the ground, you want someone local you can look in the eye. Give us a chance to quote against them.

Services We Offer

Underground oil tank removal, above-ground and basement tank removal, abandoned tank removal, oil tank abandonment and fill-in-place, oil tank sweeps and detection for home buyers, soil testing and 21E assessment, new oil tank installation and replacement, and commercial storage tank removal. We handle the fire department permits, the disposal manifests, and the soil results, and we serve New Bedford and many more South Coast cities and towns from Fall River to Wareham.

A Note From the Owner

I grew up off Acushnet Ave and spent a lot of years pulling tanks for a company where I quoted people numbers I knew were padded, and watched homeowners get scared into the most expensive option every time. Started this outfit in 2009 with one excavator and my cousin, because I figured this corner of Massachusetts could use a tank company that just tells you the truth, whether the truth is a $700 basement pull or a soil problem you need to hear about. Most of our work still comes from a neighbor handing our number to a neighbor. That is exactly how I want it.
