Reviewed by [**Rambo S** ](/editorial/), Wrong fuel expert, Fuel Fixer · last checked 1 October 2026 ## About red diesel disposal in Newcastleton Because red diesel is rebated fuel, what you may do with it is tightly controlled, and the 2022 reform cut the list of permitted users to mainly agriculture and a few others. That has left plenty of firms with red diesel they can no longer use lawfully. Keeping the transfer note matters here more than most. If entitlement or disposal is ever questioned, that document is the clean answer showing where the rebated fuel went and when. Safe disposal routes the red diesel 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. Getting disposal right is about the destination and the record. The fuel from Newcastleton goes to a permitted facility, is handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note is your audit trail showing it was dealt with lawfully. ## Local Scottish red diesel disposal in Newcastleton: the facts Fuel | Red diesel | Service | Collection and licensed disposal | Council area | Scottish Borders | Postcode districts | TD9 | Why it degrades | Ages like diesel, plus a legal marker dye that stains tanks | Typical sources | Farms, plant, generators, bowsers, decommissioned tanks, closing businesses | 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 red diesel comes from around Newcastleton Across Newcastleton and its surroundings we collect and dispose of red diesel from construction plant and generators demobilised from sites where red diesel is no longer permitted.

A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the red diesel and issues a waste transfer note on site. **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.

That is your evidence of compliant disposal for both HMRC and the regulator. **Do you take contaminated red diesel?** Yes — rebated fuel spoiled by water, sludge or bug is collected and disposed of the same way as any contaminated diesel, with documentation. **How is the price worked out?** Per litre against the volume and access, quoted before travel.
