Reply to comment by CoolAbdul in Need my old 275g heating oil tank replaced. by CoolAbdul

We just had ours done last week. $3,500. I’d recommend my oil Company but they aren’t taking new customers.

I called around after they gave me a price, because I initially felt it was high. It seems the going rate is between $3,800 and $4,200 when using a company.

Independent plumbers will be less, but good luck getting a tank on your own, and you’d have to pull permits. Also not sure how much disposal fees will be.

spot on. in addition to the health and environmental hazards involved with oil-tank removal and disposal, there's the other issues of sourcing and permitting. there are good reasons why this is not cheap to do and why it's best to not just hire some plumber you found on Angie's List.
