Reviewed by [**Rambo S** ](/editorial/), Wrong fuel expert, Fuel Fixer · last checked 29 September 2026 ## About old petrol collection in Innerwick Petrol that has sat through a season is rarely worth saving. Oxidation, evaporation of the volatile fractions and, in E10, water absorbed through the ethanol all leave a fuel that is weak, acidic and full of gums. Draining it costs far less than the injector clean an attempt to burn it usually leads to. The fire-safety angle is the one that catches people out. Stale petrol still gives off flammable vapour — arguably more freely as it ages — so a garage full of old cans is a hazard long before it is a running problem. That is another reason to clear it properly. Collecting the petrol means bringing the equipment to you rather than moving the fuel yourself. The carrier draws it out of the tank or cans, checks for residue and takes it off site, documented on a transfer note. For collection in Innerwick the carrier comes to the fuel rather than the other way round. With the litres and access confirmed, the visit is quick, the vessel is left checked, and the transfer note is your proof it was lifted properly. ## Local Scottish old petrol collector in Innerwick: the facts Fuel | Old petrol | Service | Collection and removal | Council area | East Lothian | Why it degrades | Oxidises and loses octane in 3-6 months; E10 also absorbs water | Typical sources | Classic cars, motorbikes, mowers, generators, boats, jerry cans, clearances | Classification | Hazardous waste — waste transfer note issued | Regulator | SEPA | Typical cost | Quoted per litre | Attendance | Booked collection, often same day | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where old petrol comes from around Innerwick Across Innerwick and its surroundings we collect old petrol from end-of-season karting, motocross and pit fuel, and small dealer or garage stock that has turned.

A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the old petrol and issues a waste transfer note on site. **How do you know petrol has gone off?** It darkens, smells sour or like varnish rather than sharp, and may look cloudy where ethanol has drawn in water. If in doubt, do not try to burn it. **Can I just pour old petrol away?** No. Petrol is flammable hazardous waste. Putting it down a drain, onto the ground or in a bin is an offence and a fire risk. A registered carrier removes it under a transfer note. **Can old petrol be recycled?** Once collected it goes to a licensed facility where it is processed for recovery or safe disposal. That routing is handled for you and documented on the transfer note. **How much old petrol will you take?** Anything from a single can to a full vehicle tank or a bulk store. Tell us the rough volume in litres and you get a price before anyone travels. ### One operator, four sites Fuel Fixer Scotland is the Scottish arm of Fuel Fixer Ltd.
