Commercial Cooking Oil Collection
We collect used cooking oil from commercial kitchens of every size, from busy takeaways and chip shops to pubs, hotels, care homes, schools and food manufacturers. You get free barrels, a collection schedule that suits your volume, cash paid on every collection and your waste transfer note emailed after every visit.
Collection for every kind of kitchen
Whatever you cook, we'll set you up with free barrels and a schedule that suits how much oil you use.
Restaurants and cafés
From small cafés to busy restaurants, we set a collection schedule around how much oil your fryers use.
Takeaways and chip shops
Busy fryers fill barrels fast. We can give you extra barrels and collect more often when you need it.
Pubs and hotels
Kitchens that change their oil less often can go on a longer schedule, and seasonal businesses can pause collections while they're closed.
Care homes and schools
Smaller amounts of oil are fine. Every collection comes with a waste transfer note for your records.
Food manufacturers
Tell us how much oil you produce and we'll agree barrels and a collection schedule to match.
Mobile caterers and events
Food vans and event caterers can go on a regular schedule, or book a collection when they need one.
