petrol in containers
I have heard that North Wales Police have suddenly ordered all garages to stop selling petrol to customers using any kind of container.
As a boat owner I frequently take 2 X 25 litre tanks to the garage and fill them with no problem.
I'm sure that somewhere, there is legislation making what I do illiegal, but are the police persecuting innocent people in the light of recent events?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Where are you storing your petrol, Modeste? If it's within a domestic garage, or within 6 metres of any building, the legal limit is two ten-litre metal containers or two 5-litre plastic containers.
If you want to store more petrol than that you must notify the Petroleum Licensing Authority and store the petrol in accordance with the Petroleum Spirit (Motor Vehicles etc.) Regulations 1929.
Failure to comply with the relevant Regulations is a serious offence.
