ULP Drum Filling

SAFETY ALERT

 

Upon review of the Australian Dangerous Goods Code edition 7.8 we found that under Section 10.2.5.1:

“Dangerous goods of Class or Subsidiary Hazard 3 must be transferred out of a vehicle into a storage receptacle, in accordance with AS 1940. Direct transfer of these goods out of the vehicle into drums or smaller packagings is not permitted except at facilities designed or designated for the purpose, taking into account the requirements of AS 1940 and AS/NZS 60079.10.”

The decision was made that from the 01/10/2023 no deliveries of class 3 flammable products are to be made into drums.

Our depots have commenced the process of phasing this out and will be working with customers to find alternate options at the earliest convenience to ensure a seamless resolution by the cut-off date.

For further information regarding this matter please contact your local depot on 1800 842 842.

Cyber Security

As we’re all aware there has been an increase in Cyber-Security ‘events’ and in particular scams recently.

A particular scam that concerns your communication with TASCO Petroleum is when persons unknown might potentially try to email our customers and convince you to pay your fuel account into different bank accounts. So please be aware of the following…

Our bank account details haven’t changed in over 30 years and there is no reason we will be changing them any time soon!

Our account details remain…
Commonwealth Bank
BSB 064000
Account 1060 2067
Name TASCO Petroleum

You can always find our bank account details in the body of your emailed statement but if you get our statements by email be aware that unfortunately even these details can be changed by scammers in the event that YOUR email system has been hacked! You must therefore maintain good email security and regularly change your email password. Talk to your internet provider if you have any concerns about your internet or email security.
All risk of being scammed is removed if you use our (free) direct debit system call 1800 842 842 to sign up.

In the event that you are not using our direct debit system, we recommend you build our bank account details into your banking software and never change it based on an email advice suggesting you do so!

If our bank account details change, we will notify you by letter, phone call or face-to-face, but never by email.

As always, we’re only a call away, talk to your local depot manager or call us on 1800 842 842.

July 2023 Lubricants Price Increase

We are writing to inform our customers due to new government legislation that we are anticipating a price increase across all lubricants. This will be effective from the 1st of July, 2023 due to the recent
independent review of the Products Stewardship (Oil) Act 2000.

“The levy funds benefits that are paid to used oil recyclers.
These benefits are paid through the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
From 1 July 2023 the levy will rise from 8.5 cents to 14.2 cents per litre, or per kilo for greases.”

As always, we are committed to continuing to provide quality fuels and lubricants to our customers
at affordable prices. In the event that you have any further pricing questions, please contact your
local depot.

Sincerely,
Jason Wells, Lubricants Marketing Manager
