About red diesel disposal in Nelson Caerphilly
Red diesel sits at the awkward junction of tax law and waste law. The marker dye tells HMRC the fuel was rebated; using it outside the permitted cases is an offence, and the dye lingers in a tank long after the fuel has gone.
Disposal of red diesel is handled as hazardous waste like any diesel, but the documentation carries extra weight: the transfer note is evidence for HMRC as well as the environmental regulator that rebated stock was disposed of and not diverted.
Proper disposal means a permitted end point and a documented trail. The red diesel is taken to a licensed facility for recovery or safe destruction, and the transfer note is your record of compliant disposal.
Disposal is where duty of care bites. Under the rules the waste is yours until it reaches a permitted facility, so the transfer note issued in Nelson Caerphilly — recording what left, when and where it went — is the document that keeps you covered if it is ever questioned.

Common questions
Do you dispose of red diesel in Nelson Caerphilly?
Yes — across Nelson Caerphilly and the rest of Caerphilly. A registered carrier attends home, farm, depot, marina and commercial sites, pumps out the red diesel and issues a waste transfer note on site.
Can you clear a tank so it is dye-free?
We remove the red diesel and can clean the tank so it is fit to hold road diesel again. Any residual dye is dealt with as part of the tank clean.
Will I get paperwork for HMRC?
You get a waste transfer note recording what was collected and where it went. That is your evidence of compliant disposal for both HMRC and the regulator.
Do you take contaminated red diesel?
Yes — rebated fuel spoiled by water, sludge or bug is collected and disposed of the same way as any contaminated diesel, with documentation.
How is the price worked out?
Per litre against the volume and access, quoted before travel. Give us the rough litres in the tank or bowser when you call.
