that can be stored in a garage, it doesn't say exactly on the the net, however, i came across this:
If you are storing greater than 50 litres of petrol, you need a Location Test Certificate.
so i'm picking you may store up to 50L in a garage, would this be correct! TIA

I seem to remember from the last dangerous goods cert I got, a few years ago that you may store up to 50 litres in containers not larger than 20 litres, without a permit.

What the law states on this issue is most likely VERY different to what your insurance company states. Be Aware!

whilst good in theory ; most savings schemes only tick over the 1st 40L you purchase (I know the BP one does

Your DG endorsement would have told you thelaws and limits for bulk fuel cartage and storage.

After the garage has burnt down, no-one could say how much, or how little, fuel was stored.

I choose not to store any petrol, other than that contained in my cars, in my garage. Any extra, such as for lawn mowers etc I store in the garden shed. It might not be absolutely necessary, but it gives me greater peace of mind.
