As it ages it throws off vapour more readily even as it loses the octane an engine needs, and the residue it leaves gums up everything it touches. It is also hazardous waste — you cannot tip it down a drain, onto the ground or into a bin. The commonest jobs are seasonal: mowers and machinery woken up in spring that will not run, or classics pulled out after winter with a tankful that has turned. In both, draining the old petrol and refilling fresh is the reliable fix. Safe disposal routes the petrol 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. Disposal is where duty of care bites. Under the rules the waste is yours until it reaches a permitted facility, so the transfer note issued in Cronberry — recording what left, when and where it went — is the document that keeps you covered if it is ever questioned. ## Local Scottish old petrol disposal in Cronberry: the facts Fuel | Old petrol | Service | Collection and licensed disposal | Council area | East Ayrshire | 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 | Collected and disposed of under licence | Helpline | 01295 380724 | ## Where old petrol comes from around Cronberry Around Cronberry the old petrol we collect and dispose of comes from jerry cans and spare fuel aged in a shed or garage, and the last of the petrol in a car being sold, scrapped or SORNed.
