Waste oil collection FAQs
What is waste oil collection?
Waste oil collection is the safe removal of unwanted, surplus or degraded oils from your site. These oils are either recycled, safely disposed of, or prepared for reuse where possible, in compliance with environmental regulations.
What are the benefits of removing old fuels and oils from storage tanks?
If you have old, unused or unwanted fuels and oils which have been left in storage tanks for long periods of time, they will slowly degrade and begin to corrode the containers they’re stored in. To prevent any damage to storage tanks and containers or, worse still, environmental issues caused by leaks, it is advisable to remove any waste or surplus products in a timely fashion.
Not only will this save time and money storing these products, but could also provide you with a much-needed income stream by selling any suitable surplus fuels and oils to us here at Crown Oil Environmental.
Is waste oil collection environmentally safe?
Absolutely. All waste oil is handled, transported and disposed of in accordance with UK environmental regulations, preventing soil and water contamination.
What happens after the oil is removed?
After collection, we can clean and degas tanks, removing any residual contaminants. Your tanks are then ready for fresh fuel or oil, ensuring safety and operational efficiency.
Can old oil be recycled or reused?
Yes, where the oil quality allows, it can be recycled or resold, reducing waste and providing a potential cost recovery option. Oils that are no longer usable are safely disposed of.
