About heating oil disposal in Gurnos Merthyr Tydfil
The heating oil in a domestic or commercial tank is a controlled, flammable oil, and time is not kind to it. Condensation feeds a sludge and bacterial layer beneath the fuel, the oil oxidises, and the tank itself can corrode from the water sitting in it.
Once collected, heating oil and its sludge go to a permitted facility for recovery or disposal, documented on a transfer note that is your duty-of-care record.
Disposal is what keeps you clean under duty-of-care rules: the heating oil goes to a permitted facility rather than anywhere convenient, and the transfer note proves where it went and when.
Getting disposal right is about the destination and the record. The fuel from Gurnos Merthyr Tydfil goes to a permitted facility, is handled under environmental rules, and the transfer note is your audit trail showing it was dealt with lawfully.

Common questions
Do you dispose of heating oil in Gurnos Merthyr Tydfil?
Yes — across Gurnos Merthyr Tydfil and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the heating oil and issues a waste transfer note on site.

Yes. It cannot be tipped away, drained or left in a redundant tank. A registered carrier removes it and disposes of it through a permitted facility with a transfer note.
Can you help with a leaking or rusted tank?
We pump out the oil and sludge so a failing tank can be dealt with safely, and can advise on cleaning and decommissioning. Describe the tank when you call.
