Fuel is a controlled waste, and a waste transfer note is issued on site at every collection, so your duty of care under Scottish environmental law is documented. SEPA is the regulator north of the border, not the Environment Agency. **How much does fuel collection cost in Skelmorlie?** It is priced per litre or per job depending on volume, access and fuel type. You get the figure on the phone before anyone travels — call 01295 380724. **How much can you take in one visit?** Anything from a few drums to a full commercial or farm tank. Domestic collections are usually done in one to two hours; bulk and bunded stores are surveyed and scheduled. **Can you take contaminated, bugged or sludged fuel?** Yes. Water ingress, diesel bug, mixed fuel and tank sludge are all handled, including residue removal and a tank check. **Where does the fuel go?** It leaves with a registered waste carrier and is processed for recycling through licensed channels. It is never poured away or burned off. **Do you cover the islands?** Yes. Collections are made on Arran, Bute, Mull, Islay, Skye, Lewis, Harris, the Uists, Orkney and Shetland. Island jobs are scheduled around the ferry timetable and quoted with travel included. ### One operator, four sites Fuel Fixer Scotland is the Scottish arm of Fuel Fixer Ltd.
