Common questions
How quickly can a drainer reach me in the UK?
Usually the same day and often within a couple of hours. The operator gives you an arrival window on 01295 380724 before you agree.
Can you drain a hire car or a company car?
Yes. Tell the hire company or fleet manager too; many prefer a drain on site to a recovery.
I only put a little in — do I still need a drain?
In most modern diesels, yes. Even a small amount of petrol reduces the lubrication the pump depends on. A drain is cheap compared with a pump.
Do I need to move the car off the forecourt?
Only if it is blocking a pump. Push it into a bay with help and the engine off; the drainer can work there.
What happens to the fuel you take out?
It goes into a sealed tank on the drainer's van and is taken for licensed disposal and recycling. It is never tipped away.
Do I need to stay with the car?
Ideally yes, so the drainer can confirm what happened and hand the keys back. If not, agree access on the phone.
