Used cooking oil collections
We are the UK’s leading supplier of cooking oil and collector of used cooking oil. We ensure that your cooking oil recycling service meets all legal requirements and guarantee that it is recycled to the very highest environmental standards. This helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and tackle the climate emergency.
We provide businesses across the UK with an industry-leading and competitive used cooking oil recycling service. Your used cooking oil is a valuable resource and, as a business, you have a legal responsibility to ensure that it is disposed of safely using a legally-compliant cooking oil recycling specialist.
Disposing of fats down the drain is a serious environmental issue and can lead to the formation of fatbergs which can cost water companies millions. Failure to comply fully with regulations can lead to fines running into thousands of pounds. We can advise you on how best to capture animal and vegetable fats and put them to good use.
Delivering you competitive returns for your used cooking oil
Used cooking oil has a value and we do our utmost to ensure our customers benefit from that. We provide rebates based on the quality and quantity of the oil collected. This is carefully monitored and reported to ensure you get the correct amount.
If you qualify for a rebate, you can receive it in a number of ways. While many opt to take it as cashback into their account, some of the customers who use our delivery and collection service simply offset the money they get for their used cooking oil against the price they pay for fresh oil.

Using the same delivery vehicles to collect used cooking oil makes environmental and business sense
Because we operate the UK’s leading cooking oil supply and collection service, we can collect used cooking oil in the same vehicles we use to deliver fresh oil. They have been specially designed for this purpose – keeping fresh oil hygienically separated from used oil in different parts of the vehicle.
This reduces the carbon impact of your collection service by 50%, keeping collection costs down. It also helps you operate more efficiently as your fresh cooking oil is delivered at the same time.
Serving any business in the UK generating used cooking oil
Whatever size of business you operate, we can provide you with a reliable and timely used cooking oil collection service. We serve everyone from the UK’s largest restaurant and hotel chains to individual restaurants and fast-food outlets.
We also collect from institutions such as hospitals, schools, universities, prisons and businesses with canteens.
If your kitchen produces high volumes of oil, you may benefit from our automated OilSense collection system. Large producers should contact our specialist food manufacturing team.
Guaranteeing the best environmental outcome from your used cooking oil and fats
Our biodiesel refinery is the largest in the UK solely dedicated to recovering used cooking oil. It produces biodiesel of the very highest quality, reducing vehicle carbon emissions by 88%.
What’s more, the food waste scraps and particles contained in the oil we collect from you are filtered out and used to fuel an onsite anaerobic digestion plant that provides the heat and power to fuel the refinery. This ensures nothing goes to waste and that the biodiesel we make from your cooking oil and fats is among the greenest in the world.
