As the company grew, so did its need for a larger facility. In 2010, the company moved from its 2-acre facility in Ocoee to an 8-acre facility with an 18,000 square foot warehouse in Astatula, FL. A new tank farm with over 350,000-gallons of storage and expanded processing capacity was built from the ground up. In addition to the enhanced used oil, antifreeze, and oily water processing capabilities, the new facility allowed Petrotech to perform in-house solid waste processing of drummed waste such as absorbents and paper filters, but also perform sludge solidification of non-hazardous oily waste.
