Restore Your Fuel Tank Performance and Prevent Costly Equipment Downtime

Fuel quality starts at the storage tank-and when contamination takes hold, every piece of equipment connected to that tank is at risk. Get a Reno's professional fuel tank cleaning service eliminates water buildup, sludge, sediment, and microbial growth from your storage tanks, helping keep contaminants and air exposure from harming stored fuel and connected equipment. Instead of replacing filters every few weeks or watching expensive pumps and injection systems degrade, our cleaning process addresses contamination at its source to help save on unnecessary repair and downtime costs while extending tank lifespan.

Why You'll Choose Get a Reno Tank Cleaning Services

Eliminates All Contaminants – Get a Reno's full service tank cleaning removes water, sludge, sediment, bacteria, and debris from every surface of your fuel tank interior. Water is the most destructive contaminant in diesel fuel, and our process targets free water, emulsified moisture, and the microbial growth that thrives at the water-fuel interface.
Prevents Expensive Equipment Damage – Sediment causes abrasive wear in dispensing equipment, corrodes fuel system components, and degrades fuel integrity over time. Professional cleaning removes these contaminants before they reach your filters, pumps, and injection lines, saving you from costly repair and replacing cycles.
Minimizes Operational Downtime – Fuel tank cleaning can take an average of 3.5 hours, meaning Get a Reno can restore your tank and return it to active service within a single work shift. Your operations stay running while we handle the contamination.
Ensures Regulatory Compliance – Fuel storage tank cleaning involves hazardous materials and environmental regulations. Get a Reno's technicians must have OSHA certifications for safety in tank cleaning, and our contractors are licensed to transport hazardous waste during tank cleaning. We handle all waste disposal documentation and meet federal UST regulations that cover registration and leak detection among other requirements.
Extends Tank Lifespan – Full service fuel tank cleaning lasts over 11 years, making professional maintenance far more cost-effective than premature tank replacement. By eliminating corrosion-causing contaminants, Get a Reno helps you avoid tens of thousands of dollars in tank installation costs.

What Makes Get a Reno Different from Other Contractors

Most fuel tank cleaning contractors only offer fuel polishing-a temporary filtration solution that cycles fuel through filters but leaves adhered sludge, scale, and biofilms untouched inside the tank. Others simply focus on replacing clogged filters without addressing why those filters keep failing. These approaches treat symptoms, not the problem.

Get a Reno is built differently:

Complete Tank Restoration Process – We don't just polish fuel. Get a Reno performs full interior cleaning that includes high-pressure washing, vacuum sludge extraction, and dewatering. Our process eliminates bacterial growth and water contamination throughout the entire tank, not just the fuel column. Fuel tank cleaning can restore tanks to like-new condition when performed by equipped professionals using the right methods.
No Excavation Required – Our advanced equipment accesses underground storage tanks through existing openings as small as 2–3 inches. No digging, no site disruption, no excavation costs. This is critical for clients with active operations who cannot afford to shut down a site.
Long-Lasting Results – Because Get a Reno addresses the root causes of contamination-not just the visible sediment-properly cleaned tanks maintain fuel quality for years, not months. Combined with use of approved biocides to manage microbial contamination, our treatment delivers effectiveness that temporary solutions simply cannot match.
All-in-One Service – Get a Reno combines tank cleaning, fuel polishing to 5 microns, sludge removal, water extraction, and interior restoration in a single visit. One contractor, one service call, one invoice-complete contamination solutions.

How Our Tank Cleaning Process Works

Step 1 – Tank Assessment and Fuel Transfer Every Get a Reno fuel tank cleaning project begins with a thorough inspection to determine contamination levels, tank configurations, and access points. We safely transfer fuel to temporary storage, following confined space entry protocols that are critical in fuel storage tank cleaning. Atmospheric conditions are tested before any work begins.
Step 2 – Professional Interior Cleaning Our technicians perform high-pressure washing of all interior surfaces, vacuum extraction of sludge and sediment that accumulates on tank bottoms and disperses into fuel, and complete removal of corrosion by-products while addressing moisture and air-related conditions that contribute to internal corrosion. For tanks with heavy buildup, we employ media blasting and chemical treatment methods. Every step follows strict safety protocols, and all materials are handled in compliance with environmental regulations.
Step 3 – Fuel Filtration and Return Fuel polishing can filter fuel to 5 microns, removing particulates, dissolved water, and contaminants that degrade fuel integrity. Get a Reno's multi-stage filtration process restores contaminated fuel to usable specifications before returning it to your clean tank, helping protect delivery performance and avoid service interruptions that can affect sales. Fuel that cannot be recovered is properly disposed of with full waste handling documentation specifying disposal methods and records required for compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should fuel tanks be professionally cleaned? Frequency depends on fuel type, tank age, and environmental conditions. Diesel fuel and biofuel blends are more prone to microbial growth and water contamination, so they may need attention sooner. However, Get a Reno's thorough cleaning process delivers results that last-full service fuel tank cleaning lasts over 11 years. A regular maintenance plan with periodic inspection helps you determine the right schedule for your specific storage setup.

Can you clean tanks without excavation? Yes. Get a Reno's specialized equipment cleans underground storage tanks through existing access points and fill ports. No excavation, no site disruption, and no costly groundwork. This approach is safely executed while maintaining full confined space entry protocols.

What happens to contaminated fuel during cleaning? Fuel is transferred to temporary storage, then filtered through our multi-stage fuel polishing system that can filter down to 5 microns. Fuel that meets quality specifications is returned to your clean tank. If fuel is beyond recovery, Get a Reno ensures proper disposal through licensed waste handling with complete documentation-our contractors are licensed to transport hazardous waste during tank cleaning.

How do I know if my tank needs cleaning? Clogged filters indicate contaminated fuel storage tanks. Other signs include slow fuel delivery, visible sediment or water in fuel samples, declining equipment performance, and frequent pump or injector issues. Microbial growth can clog filters and corrode components, and bacterial growth in fuel can lead to metal contaminants. If you're replacing filters more often than expected, the problem is inside your tank—not your filter. Contact Get a Reno for an inspection.

Is tank cleaning safe? Tank cleaning requires careful vetting of contractors to prevent environmental liabilities. Get a Reno's technicians hold required OSHA certifications, follow confined space entry protocols, perform atmospheric testing, and use proper vapor control measures on every project. All waste-handling procedures specify disposal methods and the documentation required by federal and state regulations.
