About heating oil disposal in Arisaig
When a heating-oil tank leaks or fails, speed matters — a spill is an environmental problem as well as a heating one. Getting the oil and sludge out lets the tank be dealt with before more escapes.
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.
The point of disposal is provability. The heating oil ends up at a permitted facility, handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note records the whole movement as your evidence.
The compliance value of proper disposal is the record. The fuel leaves Arisaig for a permitted facility, and the transfer note captures the movement — the difference between disposed of and merely gone.

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?
