Keeping mixed fuel worth collecting in Sidmouth
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 Sidmouth 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.
