Heating oil is the umbrella term; underneath it are 28-second kerosene for most domestic boilers and 35-second gas oil for some older and agricultural ones. Both, and the sludge with them, are collected and disposed of under licence. Disposal is about where the heating oil ends up and being able to prove it. Once collected it goes to a permitted facility for recovery or destruction, and you get a waste transfer note recording what left, when and where it went — your duty-of-care evidence if anyone ever asks. Getting disposal right is about the destination and the record. The fuel from Aultbea goes to a permitted facility, is handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note is your audit trail showing it was dealt with lawfully. ## Local Scottish heating oil disposal in Aultbea: the facts Fuel | Heating oil | Service | Collection and licensed disposal | Council area | Highland | Why it degrades | Kerosene or gas oil; collects water, sludge and bacteria and corrodes tanks | Typical sources | Tank decommissioning, heating changes, contamination, sales, spills, estates | Classification | Hazardous waste — waste transfer note issued | Regulator | SEPA | Typical cost | Quoted per litre | Attendance | Collected and disposed of under licence | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where heating oil comes from around Aultbea We collect and dispose of heating oil across Aultbea from farm, estate and small commercial heating-oil stores being cleared or downsized.

A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the heating oil and issues a waste transfer note on site. **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. **Do you cover commercial as well as domestic tanks?** Yes — house tanks, bunded commercial stores and farm tanks alike, quoted per litre against the volume and access. **How soon can it be collected?** Often quickly for accessible sites; the window is confirmed with the quote before travel. A leak is treated as more urgent. ### One operator, four sites Fuel Fixer Scotland is the Scottish arm of Fuel Fixer Ltd.
