About kerosene collection in Stradbally Waterford
Home heating kerosene is a light distillate that a boiler atomises through a very fine nozzle, which is why contamination matters: a little water, sludge or bacterial growth and the boiler locks out.
The most common call is a boiler upgrade or a switch to a heat pump, leaving a tank of kerosene with nowhere to go. Pumping it out and removing it is a short job once the tank is accessible.
Collection puts the burden on the carrier, not you: they attend, pump out the kerosene, inspect what held it and remove it under licence, leaving the transfer note behind as evidence.
For a collection in Stradbally Waterford the useful things to have ready are the volume in litres and how the tank or cans are reached — a tanker needs different access to a van. With that we quote and book, and the lift itself is quick once the carrier is on site.

Common questions
Do you collect kerosene in Stradbally Waterford?
We connect you with a licensed local carrier covering Stradbally Waterford and the rest of Waterford. 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.
