# Contaminated fuel collection in Blyth: tank emptied, paperwork done
**Short answer**
Contaminated fuel collection in Blyth is booked by phone on 01295 380724: tell us what is in the tank and roughly how much. A registered carrier attends, uplifts it into a sealed bowser and leaves a waste transfer note, so your duty of care is covered. Around 1 to 3 hours, quoted per litre.

Water-logged, bugged or mixed fuel is uplifted from the tank with the sludge, and a waste transfer note is issued there and then.

**4.8**
 out of 5 ★★★★★

Fuel Fixer, the company behind Wrong Fuel Drain, holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from [2,190 reviews on Trustpilot](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.fuelfixer.co.uk), on a profile claimed since 2017.

Across recent reviews, the themes customers raise most often are staff who stay polite, professional and reassuring during what is a stressful situation, and how quickly a technician arrives and gets the vehicle back on the road in Blyth.

The most common criticism is price. Some customers have felt the cost of an emergency drain was steep for a job that takes under two hours, and that is fair comment on an emergency call-out. It is why the misfuel call-out fee now starts at just £89 and why the full figure is quoted on the phone before a technician sets off — so nothing about the cost is a surprise at the roadside.

## Common questions

**Do I need to be there?**
Only if the tank is not accessible without you. Otherwise, access instructions are enough.

**How much can you take?**
From a few drums up to a full commercial tank. Larger jobs are surveyed and scheduled.

**Is old heating oil still usable?**
Sometimes, if it is clean. If it has water or sludge in it, collection and disposal is the safer option.

**How is contaminated fuel collection priced in Blyth?**
Per litre or per job, depending on volume and access. You get the figure on 01295 380724 before booking.

**Do I get a waste transfer note for contaminated fuel collection?**
Yes, at every collection. It documents your duty of care for the fuel.

**Where does the fuel go?**
To licensed processing and recycling. It is never poured away or burned.
