# Fuel disposal in Keyworth Nottingham: tank emptied, paperwork done
**Short answer**
Anyone disposing of fuel in Keyworth Nottingham 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.

Fuel is a controlled waste. It has to go through a licensed carrier for processing — it cannot be poured away or burnt off.

**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 Keyworth 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.

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

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

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