Ireland — how this works

Fuel Fixer Scotland is a Scottish operator. We do not run our own vans in Dublin, 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 Churchtown.

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 red diesel disposal in Churchtown

Red diesel is ordinary diesel dyed to mark it as rebated fuel, taxed lower for permitted off-road uses. Since the 2022 reform stripped many sectors of the entitlement, a lot of businesses have been left holding stock they can no longer legally burn — and the dye stains any tank it sits in.

Keeping the transfer note matters here more than most. If entitlement or disposal is ever questioned, that document is the clean answer showing where the rebated fuel went and when.

Safe disposal routes the red diesel to a licensed facility for recovery or destruction and documents it, so the duty of care sits with a paper trail rather than with you guessing.

The compliance value of proper disposal is the record. The fuel leaves Churchtown for a permitted facility, and the transfer note captures the movement — the difference between disposed of and merely gone.

Common questions

Do you dispose of red diesel in Churchtown?

We connect you with a licensed local carrier covering Churchtown and the rest of Dublin. They attend, lift the red diesel and dispose of it under the NIEA or EPA and the local authority, and issue the waste transfer note.

Can you clear a tank so it is dye-free?

We remove the red diesel and can clean the tank so it is fit to hold road diesel again. Any residual dye is dealt with as part of the tank clean.

Will I get paperwork for HMRC?

You get a waste transfer note recording what was collected and where it went. That is your evidence of compliant disposal for both HMRC and the regulator.

Do you take contaminated red diesel?

Yes — rebated fuel spoiled by water, sludge or bug is collected and disposed of the same way as any contaminated diesel, with documentation.

How is the price worked out?

Per litre against the volume and access, quoted before travel. Give us the rough litres in the tank or bowser when you call.
