    My Tank is Full , What about storing another 1000 or 2000 lt ? In what for how long ?
    An IBC tank would be a cheap way of storing 1000 litres but I would think for insurance purposes regarding leakage spillage a second tank might not be covered.

    Just to remind people suppliers in Ireland will have to pay the increase in carbon tax from next friday 1st may.

    A Bag of 40kg coal is increasing 80c a bag
    Briquettes are going up 30c a bale
    small 11kg of gas around €1 increase
    large cylinders approx €4.50 increase
    heating oil will also increase around €20 for 1000litres
    .
    This won't effect buying from the north just local suppliers

    I don't see why not as long as its full to capacity. You don't want room for condensation to build up.

    They deserve to be supported at the prices they offer. I ran out before Christmas and filled two containers to tide me over until delivery a few days later, I paid 97 cent at the nearest pump that had supply.

    Seeing prices of €190 for 500l and €370 for 1000l around now.

    Another €10 below that from some suppliers around Dublin.

    Top oil Athlone 35c a litre delivery for quantity over 700 litres.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35 Herby12


    420 in Tralee, 350 in Dublin for 1000 litres. Big difference.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,923 ✭✭✭Rows Grower


    Top oil Athlone 35c a litre delivery for quantity over 700 litres.

    Savage value to be had out there.

    Hopefully it'll drop to that price or near enough nationwide.

    Picked up a secondhand tank locally today and have capacity for another 500 litres in used 20 litre oil containers.

    Don't mind telling at all, it cost nothing. It holds 1240 litres.

    The man is a friend of mine who picked up a few of them from a contractor who had a job lot of them from a housing estate that he wanted to get rid of a couple of months ago.

    My friend has a lot of storage space so took a few of them knowing they were too good a bargain to leave behind. I mentioned to him about oil after dropping in price so much and I could do with a spare one and would buy one off him and he said take one away shur and when your finished with it drop it back.

    The same man would do the same favour for anyone of his friends if they asked and vice versa. It's the country way.

    What way will you work it? Will you pump from one tank to another? I'd be terrified it would leak I don't think house insurers would be happy to know I had two brimmed tanks in the garden.

    My oil tank, boiler, solar cylinder and water filtration system are all in a purpose built shed where there is plenty room for another tank. I'll just pump the oil from the spare to the usual tank when there is room for it.

    So im wondering how long this will be as low as it is or lower?

    Few technical questions -

    Does Kerosene evapourate at the same rate as petrol or diesel? Or does it at all.

    I have 2 35,000 ltr tanks formerly used as petrol and diesel tanks outside and seriously considering filling them and sitting on them for a year - evapouration is my only worry really - any other down points?

    28/30 k :). My biggest fear there would be a white transit or an avesis with a box trailer
