Questions about redundant fuel collection in Pontypool
Does old fuel in Pontypool have any value?
Often, yes. Fuel that is no longer fit to use can still hold recoverable hydrocarbons; age, water and contamination reduce what it is worth.
Can you empty a tank that is being taken out of use?
Yes, we remove the fuel. Tell us the tank size, what is in it and your deadline.
Do you collect red diesel?
Yes. Red diesel (gas oil) is one of the fuels we buy and collect in and around Pontypool.
