# Contaminated fuel collection in Streat by a licensed carrier
**Short answer**
Anyone disposing of fuel in Streat is responsible for it until a licensed carrier takes it. Call 01295 380724 and one will collect — tank, drums or bowser — issue a waste transfer note and take it for recycling. 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 Streat.

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

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

**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.

**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.
