Often, yes. Fuel that is no longer fit to use can still hold recoverable hydrocarbons; age, water and contamination reduce what it is worth.

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 Wilmslow.
