It cannot be poured away or left in a redundant tank, so it is pumped out and removed under a transfer note. Tank decommissioning often comes with the fuel removal — draining the oil first so the tank can be cleaned, cut down or taken away safely. Say if that is what you need when you call. At collection a carrier comes to the kerosene wherever it sits, draws it out, checks for residue in the tank or cans, and carries it away — the transfer note recording exactly what was lifted. Booking a collection is the easy part. Tell us the fuel, the rough litres and where the tank, bowser or cans sit in Port Seton, and we set a window and a price before anyone travels. On the day the carrier pumps it out, checks the vessel and leaves you the transfer note. ## Local Scottish kerosene collector in Port Seton: the facts Fuel | Kerosene | Service | Collection and removal | Council area | East Lothian | Postcode districts | EH32 | 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 Port Seton Across Port Seton and its surroundings we collect kerosene from leaking or corroded tanks emptied before repair, replacement or removal.

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.
