Call 01295 380724. Fuel Fixer Scotland is a Scottish operator and does not run collection vehicles in Cork — we take the details and connect you with a licensed local carrier who handles red diesel disposal covering Midleton.

[Call 01295 380724 — we will connect you locally](tel:+441295380724) ### 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 Midleton. 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](https://www.epa.ie/) 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. **Scottish-owned** Scottish-owned and Scottish-run, working every council area from the Borders to Shetland.

Disposal of red diesel is handled as hazardous waste like any diesel, but the documentation carries extra weight: the transfer note is evidence for HMRC as well as the environmental regulator that rebated stock was disposed of and not diverted. Once lifted, the red diesel is disposed of through a licensed route — recovered where it can be, destroyed where it cannot — and every step is captured on the waste transfer note you keep. Disposal closes the duty-of-care loop for a site in Midleton: permitted facility, lawful handling, and a transfer note that answers the only question that matters if anyone asks — where did it go and can you show it. ## Local Irish red diesel disposal in Midleton: the facts Fuel | Red diesel | Service | Collection and licensed disposal | County | Cork | Country | Ireland | Why it degrades | Ages like diesel, plus a legal marker dye that stains tanks | Typical sources | Farms, plant, generators, bowsers, decommissioned tanks, closing businesses | Classification | Hazardous waste — waste transfer note issued | Regulator | NIEA / EPA and local authority, not SEPA | Typical cost | Set by the attending carrier | Attendance | Referred to a licensed carrier covering Midleton | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where red diesel comes from around Midleton Most of the red diesel we collect and dispose of near Midleton originates in red diesel aged or contaminated by water and bug, and mixed or off-spec rebated batches.

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. ### One operator, four sites Fuel Fixer Scotland is the Scottish arm of Fuel Fixer Ltd.
