Efficient Uplift & Fuel Disposal Services: Responsible Management and Compliance
At OTS Group, we offer comprehensive fuel uplift and disposal services to help businesses manage their fuel resources efficiently and responsibly. Fuel uplift refers to the safe removal and transfer of redundant, contaminated, or surplus fuel from storage tanks or site systems.
Our services comply with the Registered Dealers in Controlled Oils (RDCO) scheme administered by HMRC, ensuring adherence to regulations surrounding rebated oils and controlled waste. From emergency fuel uplift to contaminated fuel management and nationwide fuel collection, our experienced team ensures compliance with environmental regulations and prioritises safety.
Fuel Uplift Process
Our fuel uplift services follow a structured process to ensure safety, compliance, and efficiency at every stage:
Site inspection – We begin with a full assessment of the site, fuel type, and storage conditions to plan a safe and compliant uplift.
Safe isolation and pumping – The fuel system is isolated, and the product is carefully pumped out using our high-capacity, ADR-compliant vacuum tankers for transport and disposal to prevent spills or contamination.
Disposal or recovery – All collected fuel is either responsibly disposed of or recovered for recycling at our fully licensed waste facility.
Documentation and compliance – Every uplift is supported by full documentation to demonstrate environmental compliance and traceability.
Every fuel uplift is planned and executed by trained professionals using industry-approved procedures.
