Ireland — how this works

Fuel Fixer Scotland is a Scottish operator. We do not run our own vans in Cork, so we do not pretend to: what we do is take the call, work out exactly what has gone into which tank, and put you straight through to a wrong-fuel drainer covering Turners Cross.

The advice on this page is the same either side of the Irish Sea, because the mechanics are: do not start the engine, do not move the vehicle, and get the wrong fluid out before anything is run through the system. That part does not change with the jurisdiction. What does change is the waste regulator — in Ireland that is the EPA and the local authority, not SEPA — and the drainer who attends will issue their own paperwork.

Call 01295 380724 and say where you are. If we cannot get someone to you, we will tell you that on the phone rather than take a booking we cannot keep.

About heating oil collection in Turners Cross

When a heating-oil tank leaks or fails, speed matters — a spill is an environmental problem as well as a heating one. Getting the oil and sludge out lets the tank be dealt with before more escapes.

Tank sludge is where proper clearance differs from a simple pump-out. The water and degraded residue at the bottom are lifted as well as the usable oil, which is what leaves a tank genuinely empty and clean.

Collection is the practical half of the job: someone comes to where the heating oil is, pumps it out of the tank, bowser, drums or cans, checks the container for residue and takes it away under a waste transfer note. You keep the note as proof it was handled correctly.

A collection runs to a booked slot rather than a wait. We confirm the price and window against the litres and access in Turners Cross, the carrier attends, draws the fuel off, and the transfer note is issued there and then as your record.

Common questions

Do you collect heating oil in Turners Cross?

We connect you with a licensed local carrier covering Turners Cross and the rest of Cork. They attend, lift the heating oil and dispose of it under the NIEA or EPA and the local authority, and issue the waste transfer note.

What counts as heating oil?

Both 28-second kerosene (the common domestic oil) and 35-second gas oil used by some older and agricultural boilers. We collect and dispose of both, plus tank sludge.

Do you remove the sludge as well as the oil?

Yes. The sludge and water at the bottom of a tank are part of the job and are collected with the oil, which is why proper clearance is more than pumping off clean fuel.

Is heating oil hazardous waste?

Yes. It cannot be tipped away, drained or left in a redundant tank. A registered carrier removes it and disposes of it through a permitted facility with a transfer note.

Can you help with a leaking or rusted tank?

We pump out the oil and sludge so a failing tank can be dealt with safely, and can advise on cleaning and decommissioning. Describe the tank when you call.
