    Moving the oil tank

    I can't help with all of your query, but i know you can get someone to help with moving the tank. If there's oil in the tank you will need to get someone who can bunker the oil in a mobile tank while the tank is being moved. They will then put the oil back into the tank at the new location...

    3 day week or half days

    depending on the distance from the job and commuting costs, don't underestimate this saving. I was put on a 3 day week (temporarily) recently and have saved a lot on fuel costs as my round trip is nearly 40 miles a day.
