Hi - we are about to change to gas heating from oil. Once done we will still have some oil left in the tank and a plastic tank.
What do we do with that oil? Will someone buy it from us?
And how do we get rid of the tank? - someone suggested contacting local farmers as always looking for big plastic tanks. Is that true or can we sell the tank too?

thanks.

    You'd probably get an improved response if you'd had posted this question on the LPG, Heating Oil, Solid & Other Fuels board ;)

    If you contact the board guide here, they will probably move it for you :)

    Any neighbours still use oil heating? I would have thought they would be keen to do a deal with you if the price was right, based on the way oil prices have soured since last winter.

    I would have thought you own the tank too (unless possibly you are tied to one supplier) so should be free to do with it what you want.
