About red diesel disposal in Kirkton Dundee
The dye in red diesel is the whole point of it: it marks fuel that has paid less duty because it is meant for agriculture and a few other off-road uses. The 2022 rules narrowed those uses sharply, so stock that can no longer be used has to be removed by someone licensed.
The 2022 change is the reason for a lot of these calls. Sectors that lost the entitlement — construction, plant hire, many commercial users — were left with red diesel they could no longer put in a machine, and the compliant answer is removal and documented disposal.
Disposal is about where the red diesel ends up and being able to prove it. Once collected it goes to a permitted facility for recovery or destruction, and you get a waste transfer note recording what left, when and where it went — your duty-of-care evidence if anyone ever asks.
Getting disposal right is about the destination and the record. The fuel from Kirkton Dundee goes to a permitted facility, is handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note is your audit trail showing it was dealt with lawfully.

Can you clear a tank so it is dye-free?
We remove the red diesel and can clean the tank so it is fit to hold road diesel again. Any residual dye is dealt with as part of the tank clean.
Will I get paperwork for HMRC?
You get a waste transfer note recording what was collected and where it went. That is your evidence of compliant disposal for both HMRC and the regulator.
Do you take contaminated red diesel?
