Kropp has been providing expert tank removal services for over 30 years. We have safely and efficiently removed tanks ranging in capacity from 275 gallons to 20,000 gallons. As part of our commercial and residential AST and UST removal services, Kropp obtains the necessary permits, notifies municipal and state agencies if required, and removes the contents of the tanks with a vacuum truck. Once the tank has been removed, Kropp transports it to a certified disposal facility and provides the client with documentation related to the removal and disposal activities. For UST removals, we collect soil samples from the tank grave and submit them for laboratory analysis to ensure that there are no tank-related impacts. If impacts are detected, we excavate the affected soil prior to backfilling with clean fill. Upon completion of the removal activities, Kropp prepares a report that can be presented to regulatory agencies, insurance companies, realtors, attorneys, and lending institutions.

When site features prevent the removal of a residential or commercial UST, Kropp will legally abandon it in place. Kropp obtains the necessary permits, makes the required notifications to municipal and state agencies, and removes the contents of the tank with a vacuum truck. Kropp then cuts open and cleans the tank and cores through the bottom to collect a soil sample for laboratory analysis. Once it has been confirmed that the soil beneath the tank is clean, Kropp fills it with a clean inert material and backfills the area above the tank. Upon completion of the abandonment activities, Kropp prepares a report that can be presented to regulatory agencies, insurance companies, realtors, attorneys, and lending institutions.
