Those owning a home, vehicle, boat, or aircraft may legally store a maximum of 30 litres of diesel without consulting their local authority of the PEA. Volumes of diesel up to 10 litres may be stored in a suitable plastic container, whilst volumes of up to 20 litres may be stored in a metal container. Volumes above 20 but below 30 litres must be contained within a demountable fuel tank.
Individuals storing between 275 and 3500 litres of diesel on their property must inform their local PEA in writing of their name, address, and the location and amount of fuel to be stored.
Those wishing to store in excess of 3500 litres of diesel on any property must apply for a license to do so, and follow all current UK legislation relating to diesel and fuel storage.
