Flexible cooking oil collection for Reading businesses
Whether you fill one drum of used fryer oil a month or several a week, we set your collection frequency to match your kitchen. There are no callout fees and no contracts to tie you in.
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.
