MacWaste provides physical removal and recycling of redundant domestic and commercial oil tanks, as well as the waste oil content within them. Whether it's a domestic heating oil tank or a large commercial fuel storage tank, we handle the entire process safely and compliantly.
Decommissioned tanks collected from sites across Northern Ireland, staged for decontamination and recycling.
NIHE-Approved Contractor
MacWaste is an approved contractor for NIHE (Northern Ireland Housing Executive) oil tank replacement grants. From collection through to final disposal, we handle the paperwork end-to-end — decommissioning confirmation, hazardous waste consignment notes and the documentation your grant claim needs — so there's nothing left for you to chase.
Domestic Oil Tanks
Redundant heating oil tanks must be properly decommissioned and removed to prevent ground contamination. We empty the residual oil, clean the tank, remove it from site and recycle the tank material — fully documented for your NIHE grant claim.
Commercial & Fuel Storage Tanks
We remove redundant commercial oil and fuel storage tanks of all sizes — from small bunded tanks to large bulk storage vessels — with all residual fuel and contaminated material removed in compliance with NIEA requirements.
How We Recycle Your Tank
Collection
We remove the tank from site, whatever its size or condition, and take it to our licensed facility.
Decontamination
Residual oil and sludge is drained and recovered before the tank itself is processed.
Recycling
Steel tanks go for scrap metal recovery; plastic tanks are broken down and reprocessed into new material — nothing goes to landfill.
NIEA-Licensed & Fully Documented
Every tank collection is backed by a hazardous waste consignment note and full paperwork trail — evidence of compliant, responsible disposal on file.
