Why Tank Sweeps Matter
Environmental Protection
Identifying underground oil tanks allows for proactive
measures to prevent soil and groundwater contamination, protecting the environment and public health.
Transaction Assurance
Conducting a tank sweep before a property transaction provides
assurance to buyers that they are making an informed decision, avoiding potential future
costs and complications associated with undiscovered tanks.

Many municipalities require tank sweeps as part of property
transactions to comply with local regulations and ensure transparency in real estate
transactions.
The Importance of Tank Sweeps in Property Transactions
