    I have an old plastic oil tank. The oil tank is tight but obviously contains, beside the 150l Kerosine, also some muddy slur from its 15-20 year past.

    What are my options to dispose of this as a single item waste? Costs? Who has done that in the past and can share experience?

    I was quoted €190 for removal of a plastic tank including a similar quantity of oil recently. Most of the companies that supply replacement tanks will remove a tank even if you're not replacing it.

    Sell it.

    Would it not be past its lifetime limits of moving on to a new home and could be brittle?

    Not sure if a plastic tank has serious decay, but could try that for the price of it's contents... I have seen those advertised for 50 to 100 euro or so...
