Where can "Pump Out Cards" be bought?

[sirweste]

After a snippet of info, need a pump out card as I'm full up (yummy). I cannot find anybody that sells them, the online and postage route isn't useful.

 

Anybody know of a seller around the Leighton Buzzard area?

 

Cheers

Conveniently located for boaters at the main railway station.......about 2 and a half miles from the canal.

Call CRT, I did, and they will tell you.

Also suggest, like I did, that they publish a list of outlets on their website.

Bear in mind that the C&RT pumpouts are often not working, usually due to someone putting something down the Elsan on the same drain.  Not ideal if you have a full tank and were relying on being able to empty it!

Are there no marinas/yards in your area if you that desperate? Must admit didn't realise a lot don't work, we purchased a card three years ago just in case and obviously never used it, good luck

We had a very thorough and reasonably priced pumpout a Wyvern Shipping last year.

Pretty sure you can buy them online.

Picked a couple up from HQ, quite a faff as was told someone would be there from 8:10 and unfortunately they weren't (and I forgot to get their name). But still, staff were all very helpful and got sorted in the end.

I know it's a bit late now but Warren operates pumpout boat (he refers to it in slightly less polite terms!) Picot. He's based near Apsley but travels up and down the Southern GU. Mobile 07779 114956

If you come across a faulty CRT pumpout give them a ring. If it is a weekday during working hours they will have a contractor sent out to fix it. And probably give you a couple of cards as reimbursement for the time wasted.

In our experience (having come across about 10 faulty pumpouts) 90% of the time the problem is a card jammed in the card reader. The contractor takes out a card or two out of the back of the reader, and it works again. A two minute job. Unfortunately, because the contractors bill CRT a minimum charge for the visit, they usually spend the next hour or two checking other parts of the system, such as the pump and hoses and piping -- which are obviously fine.
