One call to 01295 380724 sorts it. Someone comes to wherever the fuel is across Broughton, empties the tank, bowser, drums or cans, checks for residue and hands you the waste transfer note before leaving. Most jobs are 30-60 minutes on site, quoted per litre, and often done the same day. This is hazardous waste in law, which is why it is pumped out, carried under a registered carrier and disposed of properly rather than tipped or left.

Kerosene and heating oil are used loosely to mean the same thing, but strictly kerosene is the 28-second grade most homes burn, while heating oil also covers 35-second gas oil for some older or agricultural boilers. We collect either. A collection is a booked visit: the carrier turns up, pumps the kerosene out of the store, bowser, drums or cans, checks the container and removes it, handing over the waste transfer note as your record. For a collection in Broughton the useful things to have ready are the volume in litres and how the tank or cans are reached — a tanker needs different access to a van. With that we quote and book, and the lift itself is quick once the carrier is on site. ## Local Scottish kerosene collector in Broughton: the facts Fuel | Kerosene | Service | Collection and removal | Council area | Scottish Borders | Postcode districts | ML12 | Why it degrades | Grows water sludge and bacteria over time; fouls the boiler nozzle | Typical sources | Home heating tanks, decommissioning, boiler upgrades, house sales, estates | Classification | Hazardous waste — waste transfer note issued | Regulator | SEPA | Typical cost | Quoted per litre | Attendance | Booked collection, often same day | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where kerosene comes from around Broughton The kerosene we collect in and around Broughton tends to come from overfilled or wrong deliveries, and small commercial or agricultural kerosene stores being cleared.

A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the kerosene and issues a waste transfer note on site. **Is kerosene the same as heating oil?** Kerosene (28-second) is the common domestic heating oil for off-grid homes. Heating oil also covers gas oil (35-second) used by some older or agricultural boilers. We collect both. **Why does old kerosene stop the boiler working?** Water and sludge collecting under the fuel, plus bacterial growth, block the boiler's fine nozzle. Removing the old oil and cleaning the tank usually clears it. **Can I empty my own oil tank?** It is safer and cleaner to have it pumped out by a registered carrier, especially as the oil is hazardous waste that cannot be tipped away. You also get a transfer note. **Do you decommission the tank too?** We pump out and remove the kerosene and can advise on or arrange tank cleaning and decommissioning.
