# Contaminated fuel collection in Lenton Nottingham by a licensed carrier
**Short answer**
Ring 01295 380724 with the fuel type and a rough number of litres. For contaminated fuel collection in Lenton Nottingham, a registered waste carrier pumps the tank, drums or bowser dry, checks for sludge and hands over a waste transfer note before leaving. Usually 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 Lenton Nottingham.

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

**Can you take sludge from the bottom of the tank?**
Yes. Residue and sludge are removed along with the fuel, and the tank is checked.

**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.

**Do you collect from farms and yards around Lenton Nottingham?**
Yes, as well as homes, depots, marinas and commercial sites.

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

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