Oil & fuel tank serviceswherever your site is

Britteco cleans, removes, decommissions, inspects and installs commercial oil and fuel tanks across England, Scotland and Wales. Engineers work from two bases, Banbury in Oxfordshire and Harrogate in North Yorkshire, so a site in Kent and a site in Cumbria get the same crew standards and paperwork.

How we cover the whole country

Most of our work is planned: tank cleaning before an inspection, removal ahead of a building project, decommissioning when a site changes use. For those jobs preparation matters most, so we survey from photos and drawings first, then send a crew with the right pumps, vacuum tanker capacity and lifting gear in one visit.

Southern and Midlands sites are run from Banbury; northern sites are run from Harrogate. Either way you get one point of contact, one quote and one set of paperwork.

  • Waste Transfer or Consignment Notes for every load of sludge, water and old fuel
  • Degassing and disposal certificates for removed tanks
  • Work planned around the Control of Pollution (Oil Storage) (England) Regulations 2001
  • 24/7 emergency diesel and heating oil delivery while tank work is arranged

Questions

Coverage questions

Do you work outside the counties listed here?

Yes. The county pages show where we have written up local detail, not the limit of where we go. We take commercial tank work anywhere in England, Scotland and Wales; call us with the postcode and we will tell you how we would plan the visit.

Where do your engineers travel from?

From our head office at Cherwell Valley Business Park near Banbury (Oxfordshire) and our northern base at Fellbeck near Harrogate (North Yorkshire). Southern and Midlands jobs usually run from Banbury, northern jobs from Harrogate.

How do you plan work at a site far from your bases?

Jobs like this are booked as a planned visit, with pump-out, cleaning or removal grouped into as few days on site as possible. For a heating or generator emergency, our 24/7 diesel and heating oil delivery can keep a site running while the tank work is arranged.

Do you help homeowners as well as businesses?

Yes. Our focus is commercial and industrial tanks, but the same engineers replace, remove and foam fill home heating oil tanks too. See our home heating oil tank page for how it works.
