# Fuel disposal in Milton Keynes: collected and disposed of
**Short answer**
Ring 01295 380724 with the fuel type and a rough number of litres. For fuel disposal in Milton Keynes, 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.

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 Milton Keynes.

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.
