The stakes

An inspector pulls onto your lot and asks for the last 12 months of walkthroughs, your leak-detection logs, and your training records. Right now.

Most underground-tank violations are not spills. They are missing paperwork. If you cannot put your hands on the records, it does not matter that you did the work. It becomes a finding, then a fine, and a red tag can stop your deliveries until it is cleared.

TankBinder was built to keep that binder on a phone, so the records could be handed over in one tap.

What it was built to do

1

Add sites and tanks once.

Setup loads a walkthrough built from the state's form or from the federal rule.

2

Walk the site, tap, sign.

The walkthrough runs on a phone at the tanks. Each answer is timestamped and stored with a photo and a signature.

3

Track the deadlines.

The app sends a reminder before each due date and keeps the inspector file together for any site and any date.

The idea

The paper binder it was meant to replace.

The back-room binder

  • × Records you have to remember to file, and can misplace.
  • × No warning before a deadline slips past.
  • × A scramble through paper when the inspector is standing there.
  • × One generic checklist that may not match your state.
  • × English only, even when your crew is not.

TankBinder

  • ✓ Every walkthrough timestamped and stored.
  • ✓ An email reminder before deadlines.
  • ✓ The inspector file in one tap.
  • ✓ A walkthrough built for each state.
  • ✓ The whole app in English and Spanish.
Important

Not a compliance service.

TankBinder must not be relied on for compliance. Its state rules and deadlines have not been checked by a lawyer or a compliance expert. If you operate underground storage tanks, follow your state and federal requirements and confirm them with your state agency.

The demo shows fictional sample data only. Nothing you change there is saved.
