Keeping mixed fuel worth collecting in Huntingdon
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.
Collections from Huntingdon follow English rules: the fuel is hazardous waste, it travels on a hazardous waste consignment note, and the permitted site that receives it records it on the Digital Waste Tracking service.
Questions about mixed fuel collection in Huntingdon
Where does mixed fuel in Huntingdon 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 Huntingdon produce, and we collect it as it is.
Is mixed fuel from Huntingdon hazardous waste?
Yes. Mixed petrol and diesel is hazardous waste, or special waste in Scotland, and moves on a consignment note, usually coded 13 07 03*.
