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.

Questions about mixed fuel collection in Gorseinon
Do you buy mixed fuel in Gorseinon?
Often, yes. Mixed petrol and diesel usually still has recoverable value, so a load from Gorseinon can earn a rebate once it has been assessed.
Where does mixed fuel in Gorseinon usually come from?
Mostly from vehicle depollution, where petrol and diesel drain into the same container, and from garages draining misfuelled vehicles.
Should I keep petrol and diesel separate?
If your set-up allows it, yes, but mixed fuel is what most dismantlers around Gorseinon produce, and we collect it as it is.
