House demo & regulations

I picked up a project that consisted of removing a 500 gal fuel oil tank with 30 gallons of fuel (that I will use for my home )
a steam oil burner with a touch of asbestos 600 lb as short , I picked up some tin mix metals to the tune of 500 lb
AL of around 30 pounds
and #1 romex that fills a 25 gallon pail some brass some copper .
I took care of the situation and house was then demoed .
I am to pay owner 20% cut .

So the question all said and done - - If a scrapper ( like Me ) did not remove the boiler and tank would the demo crew not of proceed I feel they would not of put boiler in dumpster . and would not of dare moved oil tank for all the ramification associated with a oil spill .
This is my second oil tank and I see in 2 years - rules have changed I have to cut a round or square hole in tank of around 12 inches so yard men can see any major sludge . I also have to rinse tank with water .

This whole project seems like too much work for a 20% cut. At this point I feel the owner is way ahead as I think done by the law this is a $1200 project cost for him.
I will add he has a LLC home rental company that this home is a part of . So wile I am in gypsy mode doing this,
his company is by the books
I sensed his urgency as he ask if I can handle the oil tank.



I will give him his cut after I discussed with him some realities,( I feel he will let it slide ) But for the future I feel this service of oil tank is not gonna be free in the future


Yes the pick up truck allowed me to just do a project I would of not taken on with the mini van.
