**Short answer**

Around 30-60 minutes on site on site, quoted per litre, often same day.

Because red diesel like this counts as hazardous waste, it has to be removed by someone registered to carry it and disposed of through a permitted route, all documented.

## About red diesel disposal in Springhall
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.

Where a tank has to hold road diesel next, we remove the red diesel and can clean the vessel so residual dye does not contaminate the new fuel. Otherwise a fuel test could still show red long after the switch.

The point of disposal is provability. The red diesel ends up at a permitted facility, handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note records the whole movement as your evidence.

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 Springhall — recording what left, when and where it went — is the document that keeps you covered if it is ever questioned.

## Common questions

**Do you dispose of red diesel in Springhall?**
Yes — across Springhall and the rest of South Lanarkshire. 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. 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?**
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. Give us the rough litres in the tank or bowser when you call.
