Posted By MP How much is being transported? If it's less than 333 litres and it's in an approved container then all is well.

Posted By Tom Sladden Hi Keith, At first glance this sounds like a classic example of the small load excemptions section of the Carriage Of Dangerous Goods Regulations. These regs hold detials of listed dangerous goods that are being transported for certain uses. Under the small load excemption section the fuel that you are transporting should be listed and the amounts that you may carry without the need for signage on the vehicle. Without looking at the regs this will probably be the amounts already stated by my colleagues. If you google CDG regs you will be able to obtain a copy for free. It is a hefty document so good luck!! A point to remember is that although the law specifies the requirements for recording risk assessments etc being 5 or more employees, it is always good advice to ensure that the procedures you are adopting in the transportation of such goods is adequately controlled. The law does not state that you should not have a suitable and sufficient risk assessment even if it is all in your head. Staff need to be made aware of the hazards and the control measures in place to enable the goods to be transported safely. Good luck Tom.

Posted By ianmilne69 You can transport it in a 205 litre metal drum designed for that purpose (with flammable stickers on it). Remember to earth a strap against static discharge and have some spill kit 'stuff' onboard....just in case. And I know that you have an ingenious way to ensure that you will of secured it to prevent toppling over. Hope it helps.
