About heating oil disposal in Boddam
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.
The typical trigger is a heating change — oil to heat pump or gas — that strands a tank of oil. Removing it is quick once accessible, and the transfer note shows the tank was cleared for a sale or an estate.
Safe disposal routes the heating oil 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.
Getting disposal right is about the destination and the record. The fuel from Boddam goes to a permitted facility, is handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note is your audit trail showing it was dealt with lawfully.

Common questions
Do you dispose of heating oil in Boddam?
Yes — across Boddam and the rest of Aberdeenshire. 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.
