Keeping mixed fuel worth collecting in Bacup
Keep lids and caps on so rain cannot get in, and never pour oil, coolant or AdBlue into the fuel container. Even a little petrol makes the whole mix highly flammable, so store it away from ignition sources.
Waste fuel from Bacup is hazardous waste under the Environment Agency's rules for England. Each load moves on a hazardous waste consignment note, and producers keep their copies for three years.
