New brand - Engine lubricants e-commerce - storage - MichaelWins

Hello there, I am looking for information about the requirements for storing engine oils in 1L and 4L containers (like castrol, mobile 1, shell etc). I would like to start an e-commerce business. I was refused self-storage, should it be a sea container? What are the legal requirements? I contacted various organizations and website, but no one answered my question.. please help!

Michael

You will probably need a self contained lock up unit, trade counter unit.

COSHH are the regs you need to be up to speed on. Each product manufacturer will have a safety data sheet to inform your own COSHH and risk assessments.

If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.

Is an electric car right for me?
