💡 The Real Risk Lurking Beneath Your Yard

For decades, steel underground storage tanks (USTs) were the standard for heating oil and fuel. But steel doesn’t last forever. Over time, rust eats away at the shell and seams, creating holes that allow petroleum to leak into the soil and groundwater.

This isn’t just a property issue—it’s an environmental one. If you rely on a well, or live near a stream or watershed, a leaking tank could affect not just your home, but your entire community. For prospective buyers, an undocumented or abandoned UST can also mean unexpected liability.


That’s where Tri State Environmental Services comes in. Known for our excellence in both value and quality of New York environmental services, we specialize in underground storage tank removal.


Unlike an ordinary excavation, removing a UST requires specialized training, equipment, and coordination with regulatory agencies. Our operators and staff work closely with both property owners and governing authorities to ensure every step of the process is handled correctly, efficiently, and in full compliance with environmental regulations.


Bottom line: If your underground tank has been in place for decades, it may already be at risk. Don’t wait until corrosion turns into contamination—call the experts who know how to get the job done right. Contact TRI STATE ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES
