Fuel collection disposal for:
We bring specialist equipment to drain the fuel safely from whatever type of storage it currently inhabits. We transfer it to our onboard storage. If we are removing old fuel from immobile / inoperational vehicles we also ahve equipment to flush fuel lines, filters and pumps.
Our mobile units have environment agency approved equipment to do the job quickly and without fuss. We can almost always cope with urgent/rush jobs and any volumes. Each mobile unit can carry 330 litres per unit per trip – for larger volume we arrange several units to do round trips.
We can also bring you fresh fuel if needed.
