About heating oil collection in Wyre
The heating oil in a domestic or commercial tank is a controlled, flammable oil, and time is not kind to it. Condensation feeds a sludge and bacterial layer beneath the fuel, the oil oxidises, and the tank itself can corrode from the water sitting in it.
Domestic and commercial jobs alike are handled — a single house tank, a bunded commercial store, or a farm tank — quoted per litre against volume and access.
A collection is a booked visit: the carrier turns up, pumps the heating oil out of the store, bowser, drums or cans, checks the container and removes it, handing over the waste transfer note as your record.
Booking a collection is the easy part. Tell us the fuel, the rough litres and where the tank, bowser or cans sit in Wyre, and we set a window and a price before anyone travels. On the day the carrier pumps it out, checks the vessel and leaves you the transfer note.

Common questions
Do you collect heating oil in Wyre?
Yes — across Wyre and the rest of Orkney Islands. A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the heating oil and issues a waste transfer note on site.
What counts as heating oil?
Both 28-second kerosene (the common domestic oil) and 35-second gas oil used by some older and agricultural boilers. We collect and dispose of both, plus tank sludge.
Do you remove the sludge as well as the oil?
Yes. The sludge and water at the bottom of a tank are part of the job and are collected with the oil, which is why proper clearance is more than pumping off clean fuel.
Is heating oil hazardous waste?
Yes. It cannot be tipped away, drained or left in a redundant tank. A registered carrier removes it and disposes of it through a permitted facility with a transfer note.
Can you help with a leaking or rusted tank?
We pump out the oil and sludge so a failing tank can be dealt with safely, and can advise on cleaning and decommissioning. Describe the tank when you call.
