Fuel Bowser Hire for Reading Construction and Plant
Fuel bowsers can support projects running diesel-powered plant where a suitable on-site storage and dispensing arrangement is required. Coppard can also supply excavators, dumpers, generators and other plant through the Reading operation, allowing the fuel requirement to be considered alongside the machines using it.
The relevant legal and environmental requirements depend on the actual fuel, container, site and use.
Check Secondary Containment, Security and Dispensing Requirements
Before hire, confirm the fuel type, proposed position, dispensing method and whether the skid-mounted or trailer-mounted configuration is required.
GOV.UK states that business oil-storage rules generally apply to containers of 201 litres or more and specifically include mobile bowsers. A single mobile bowser needs secondary containment with capacity equal to 110% of the container. Additional requirements apply to taps, pumps, valves and permanently attached delivery pipes so oil cannot flow when the equipment is not in use.
The site operator remains responsible for applying the regulations to the actual installation and use.
Call 0118 979 2828 to confirm the exact bowser configuration and current stock.
