Some members might ask for or offer waste oil, possibly for use as fuel or fence preservative.

There are regulations surrounding the storage of oil, which you might wish to consult or direct your members to:


Oil Storage Regulations:

Hazardous Waste Regulations (businesses who hold or dispose of more than 500Kg of hazardous waste must register with the EA)

http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/business/topics/waste/32198.aspx

You might also be interested in your Duty of Care - everyone has a duty to make sure if a business takes our waste away that they are legal to do so.
