About kerosene disposal in Crossmolina
When a home comes off oil heating, the leftover kerosene is often the last thing anyone thinks about. It cannot be poured away or left in a redundant tank, so it is pumped out and removed under a transfer note.
Kerosene and heating oil are used loosely to mean the same thing, but strictly kerosene is the 28-second grade most homes burn, while heating oil also covers 35-second gas oil for some older or agricultural boilers. We collect either.
Disposal closes the loop: the collected kerosene reaches a permitted facility, is processed or destroyed lawfully, and the transfer note issued on site is your proof it was done right.
The disposal end matters most for compliance. Once lifted in Crossmolina, the fuel is routed to a licensed facility for recovery or destruction, and the paper trail is the point: your duty of care is discharged by evidence, not assurances.

Common questions
Do you dispose of kerosene in Crossmolina?
We connect you with a licensed local carrier covering Crossmolina and the rest of Mayo. They attend, lift the kerosene and dispose of it under the NIEA or EPA and the local authority, and issue the waste transfer note.
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.
How much notice do you need?
Often a collection can be booked quickly; the window is confirmed with the quote before anyone travels. Access and volume set the timing.
Will you take contaminated kerosene?
Yes — water-logged, sludged or bacterially spoiled kerosene is collected and disposed of the same way, with documentation.
