About kerosene collection in Ringsend
Kerosene sits quietly in a tank until something disturbs it — a house move, a switch away from oil heating, a leak, or years of condensation building a sludge layer at the bottom. Because it is a controlled, flammable oil, it cannot simply be drained onto the ground.
Once collected the kerosene goes to a licensed facility, and you keep the transfer note. For a house sale or an estate, that document shows the tank was cleared properly.
The lift is the easy part once it is booked — a registered carrier attends, empties the kerosene, checks the vessel and takes it away, with the transfer note issued on site so the chain of custody is clear.
What makes a collection in Ringsend smooth is knowing the access: whether a tanker can get to the tank, or the drums have to be carried out. Give us that and the volume on the call and the quote and window are fixed before travel.

Common questions
Do you collect kerosene in Ringsend?
We connect you with a licensed local carrier covering Ringsend and the rest of Dublin. They attend, lift the kerosene and dispose of it under the NIEA or EPA and the local authority, and issue the waste transfer note.
Is kerosene the same as heating oil?
Kerosene (28-second) is the common domestic heating oil for off-grid homes. Heating oil also covers gas oil (35-second) used by some older or agricultural boilers. We collect both.
Why does old kerosene stop the boiler working?
Water and sludge collecting under the fuel, plus bacterial growth, block the boiler's fine nozzle. Removing the old oil and cleaning the tank usually clears it.
Can I empty my own oil tank?
It is safer and cleaner to have it pumped out by a registered carrier, especially as the oil is hazardous waste that cannot be tipped away. You also get a transfer note.
Do you decommission the tank too?
We pump out and remove the kerosene and can advise on or arrange tank cleaning and decommissioning. Tell us what you need when you call.
