removal of the oil tank
15 OCTOBER 2012
[back post] Yes, this was done almost a year ago! This
is a 275-gallon piece of history. A
historical photo. An account of
something that is no longer. You may detect
a note of exuberance as I fondly recall the #2-oil-fired heating system, of
which there is currently little sign.
Two guys from Auburn came by the morning
of 9/28/2012, and made a pretty nice cut and haul operation. The tank had to weigh
at least 100 lbs. itself. So, at $280 a
ton, the scrap value of the tank was
maybe 14 bucks. I paid $50 to not have
to do the work of sawing it in half (longways), haul it out, and worry about the oil sludge
disposal. Hopefully Mark and his helper
made the stop in at Maine Standard Biofuels, where oil residue is accepted oil in various
of stages of coagulation-- usable for their waste-to-biodiesel operation.
