## Is waste petrol in Cumnock worth anything?

Petrol can be recovered, but its volatility, evaporation losses and handling controls mean it is usually worth less than the same volume of clean diesel. We never publish prices, because every load and every day is different: for an actual figure, call 07950 582635 or send an enquiry.
