Used cooking oil collection in Leeds
Commercial kitchens in Leeds trust Bio UK Fuels for used cooking oil collection and recycling. From a single drum of fryer oil to bulk waste vegetable oil, we collect, provide Duty of Care paperwork and turn your waste oil into renewable biodiesel.

We work with city-centre restaurants, Headingley pubs and student takeaways, along with kitchens around Leeds city centre, Headingley, Kirkgate Market and the University of Leeds. Our collection area also takes in Wakefield, Harrogate and Castleford.

Licensed used cooking oil recycling in Leeds
We hold Environment Agency waste carrier licence CBDU199369 and environmental permit EPR/GP3623PJ, so every litre of waste cooking oil collected in Leeds is handled legally from your fryer to our biodiesel recycling.
Collections under 100 litres are free, and from 100 litres upwards we pay a rebate based on oil quality and the current biodiesel price. Recycling your old fryer oil into biodiesel cuts greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% compared with mineral diesel and keeps fats, oils and grease out of the drains.
More areas we cover around Leeds
Beyond the city centre we collect from kitchens in Headingley and Kirkstall in north-west Leeds, Seacroft in the east, Garforth and Rothwell to the south-east, and the market town of Otley in Wharfedale.
Headingley's student streets and its cricket and rugby stadium keep takeaways and bars busy, while Kirkstall Road and the retail parks around it are full of fast-food outlets. Otley's pubs and cafés serve walkers heading into the Dales. Leeds also has a large number of food manufacturers and distribution sites along the M1 and M62, and we collect bulk volumes from production lines as well as single fryers. Your first collection is usually within 1 to 7 days of booking.
