Keeping mixed fuel worth collecting in Great Harwood
Treat mixed fuel like petrol: a small share of petrol lowers the flash point of the whole mix far below normal air temperatures. Book collections before containers fill, rather than after.
Moving waste fuel from Great Harwood is covered by the hazardous waste rules for England: a registered carrier, a hazardous waste consignment note for each load, and records kept for three years.
