I have an Osma 40 gallon Water Storage Cistern (tank) in the loft.
It is unused, not connected to the water supply and empty.

My loft entrance is too small to get the tank out. Is it safe to saw
up the tank into manageable chunks for removal? It is made of
"Osmaglass".

What type of cutting tool would be best for the job?

Thanks

I'm assuming that you NEED to remove the tank from the loft?
A hard point (cheap and disposable) hand saw should make quick work of it,
although it will be blunt at the end of the job.
