Rainwater Tank Removal
Efficient Rainwater Tank Removal Services
Are you rebuilding, extending or making an addition to your home which has a tank system in the way?
Don’t fret. We can relocate and remove rainwater tank systems to make way for your new plans.
Complete & Responsible Tank Removals
Part of our service includes bridging all connections including stormwater and mains feed lines from tank systems, pumping out and draining tanks as well as demolition of any slabs if required.
Old tank systems have usually reached their end of service life by the time we’re engaged, so we send all steel tanks to scrap metal recyclers, and plastic tanks to plastic recyclers for reuse and repurposing of these systems. Tanks we remove never end up in landfill, and we take pride in playing our part to help the environment and repurposing old tank systems for a new life in manufacturing.
This work is usually done in conjunction with a rainwater tank installation which takes place during construction or renovation of the outdoor area of the home. We can install new tank systems to suit the new design during this construction process.

We repair, while you save every drop!

When Would I Need a Tank Disposal?
Although rainwater tanks are an excellent eco-friendly water source. Oftentimes, it may be unnecessary or a challenge to your property. Over the years, our experts have met various timelines for home improvements. Which ensures that your tank removal process is hassle free.
See why you might need a rainwater tank removal:
- Creating more space: Frees up yard space for other uses, E.G home extension.

- Pest Prevention: Removes breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other pests.
- Upgrade Needs: Makes way for modern, more efficient water systems.
When Would I Need a Tank Relocation?
Rainwater tanks can be necessary for various spaces. Whether this may be a farm or home.
This system is known to be an eco-friendly water source. Which if cleaned regularly can have various purposes. Whether it’s for drinking water, or for common household tasks like cleaning.
- Site changes: If you’re using the land for something new, move the tank.
- Easier to reach: Move it to make it easier to check and fix.
- More room needed: If you need more space, the tank may have to move.

Are rainwater tanks mandatory in NSW?
A rainwater tank is not a legal requirement in NSW but it is strongly recommended as an investment into greater sustainability and more eco-friendly practices. However, if your home was built with the design incorporating a BASIX Checklist, and your checklist included a rainwater tank, then there is a legal requirement to have a tank at your property.
Which is why we usually also recommend a new installation with this process, or a relocation of a water tank. Rainwater tanks offer a great resource for developing an independent water supply system that you can use to reduce your water use and the costs associated with it.
