Licensed used cooking oil recycling in Southend
We hold Environment Agency waste carrier licence CBDU199369 and environmental permit EPR/GP3623PJ, so every litre of waste cooking oil collected in Southend 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 Southend
Around Southend we also collect from Rayleigh, Rochford and Wickford inland, and from Hadleigh, Benfleet and Canvey Island to the west along the Thames estuary.
Southend's seafront and its pier, the longest pleasure pier in the world, draw day-trippers to chip shops, cafés and amusements all summer. Canvey Island has its own seafront cafés and takeaways, and Rayleigh and Wickford have busy high streets with restaurants and pubs. London Southend Airport and the business parks around Rochford add staff canteens. Collection is free, and your first collection is usually within 1 to 7 days.
