It cannot be poured away or left in a redundant tank, so it is pumped out and removed under a transfer note. Once collected the kerosene goes to a licensed facility, and you keep the transfer note. For a house sale or an estate, that document shows the tank was cleared properly. Safe disposal routes the kerosene 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. The compliance value of proper disposal is the record. The fuel leaves Cromarty for a permitted facility, and the transfer note captures the movement — the difference between disposed of and merely gone. ## Local Scottish kerosene disposal in Cromarty: the facts Fuel | Kerosene | Service | Collection and licensed disposal | Council area | Highland | Postcode districts | IV11 | 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 | Collected and disposed of under licence | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where kerosene comes from around Cromarty Across Cromarty and its surroundings we collect and dispose of kerosene from tanks holding old paraffin or long-standing kerosene the household no longer uses.

A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the kerosene and issues a waste transfer note on site. **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. **How much notice do you need?** Often a collection can be booked quickly; the window is confirmed with the quote before anyone travels. Access and volume set the timing. **Will you take contaminated kerosene?** Yes — water-logged, sludged or bacterially spoiled kerosene is collected and disposed of the same way, with documentation. ### One operator, four sites Fuel Fixer Scotland is the Scottish arm of Fuel Fixer Ltd.
