Serving Peterborough & The Kawarthas Since 1979

If your home, cottage, or farm in Peterborough has an oil tank that is no longer in use, it must be removed. Whether it is an exterior tank, a basement unit, or an underground storage tank, dormant fuel systems pose a serious environmental risk.

At Eco Metal Recycling Inc., we specialize in keeping your property hazard-free. We have been the trusted choice for Peterborough homeowners for over 40 years, providing eco-friendly pump-outs and safe tank removals.

Why You Should Remove Your Dormant Oil Tanks

If your Peterborough home, farm, or business has a tank that is no longer in use or past its service life, it MUST be removed.

Abandoned oil tanks take up valuable space and pose a serious liability. These dormant tanks are at potential risk for a fuel leak, which can lead to costly environmental cleanups. They should always be properly removed by a qualified, TSSA-certified professional.

IMPORTANT! PETERBOROUGH RESIDENT — DO NOT TRY AND TAKE OUT YOUR OIL TANK YOURSELF. THIS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGES NOT ONLY TO YOURSELF BUT YOUR HOME.

Let us remove that old oil tank.
