# Fuel collection in Galway — collected and disposed of
**Short answer**
If you have fuel collection in Galway, County Galway, Ireland, do not start the engine and call 01295 380724. We cover Ireland through local fuel drainers rather than our own vans, and we will connect you to one covering Galway with the vehicle and fuel details already passed on. Surplus, off-spec or unwanted fuel collected from tanks, drums and bowsers by a registered waste carrier. Price and arrival time are set and confirmed by the local operator before they travel.

Whether the engine was started is what decides the outcome, in Ireland exactly as in the UK.

### How Ireland works
Misfuel Doctor operates its own mobile technicians across the UK. In Ireland we do not run our own vans — we work with local fuel drainers and connect you to one covering Galway. Call 01295 380724 and we will pass you straight to a drainer in your area with the details of the vehicle and the fuels involved, so you are not repeating the story twice. Pricing and attendance times are set by the local operator, not by us, so ask them to confirm both before they travel.
