Keeping mixed fuel worth collecting in Whickham
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.
In England, where Whickham is, waste fuel is hazardous waste regulated by the Environment Agency. You complete your part of the consignment note on the day and keep it with your records for three years.

Yes. Mixed petrol and diesel is hazardous waste, or special waste in Scotland, and moves on a consignment note, usually coded 13 07 03*.
Do you buy mixed fuel in Whickham?
