# Local Scottish kerosene collector in Perth
**Short answer**
If you have kerosene to clear in Perth, call 01295 380724. The job is straightforward: a licensed carrier attends anywhere in Perth, pumps the fuel from the tank, bowser, drums or cans, checks the container and issues the transfer note on site. Normally 30-60 minutes on site, quoted per litre.

You cannot legally pour kerosene away or bin it — it is hazardous waste, so it is collected under licence and the transfer note is your proof it was handled correctly.

## About kerosene collection in Perth
When a home comes off oil heating, the leftover kerosene is often the last thing anyone thinks about. It cannot be poured away or left in a redundant tank, so it is pumped out and removed under a transfer note.

Contaminated kerosene that keeps tripping the burner is the other frequent job. Rather than fight it filter by filter, the old oil is removed, the tank checked, and fresh fuel put in clean.

What a collection involves is simple: attend, pump out the kerosene, inspect the empty vessel, and carry it away for you — all covered by the transfer note issued before the carrier leaves.

A collection is arranged around your site in Perth: we match the kit to the access, quote per litre on the volume, and book a window. The lift is a short visit — pump out, check the vessel, issue the note.

## Common questions

**Do you collect kerosene in Perth?**
Yes — across Perth and the rest of Perth and Kinross. 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. Tell us what you need when you call.
