How our waste cooking oil collection service works
Bio UK Fuels is a family-run business based in Sheffield. We operate our own vehicles, employ our own drivers, and run our own biodiesel production facility. When you book a collection, you deal directly with the people who turn up — no brokers, no subcontractors, no handoffs.
Bio UK Fuels holds Environment Agency waste carrier licence CBDU199369 and environmental permit EPR/GP3623PJ . Used cooking oil is a controlled waste under UK law, regulated by the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and the Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011. Every collection is documented with a Duty of Care Waste Transfer Note — the legal record your business needs to demonstrate compliant waste disposal. You can verify our licence status directly on the Environment Agency public register.

Your used cooking oil is recycled into biodiesel and other sustainable products. We ensure 100% of collected oil is properly processed and reused, contributing to a circular economy and reducing environmental impact.
Collection requirements vary by location and service type. Generally we collect from 50 litres upwards for commercial premises. Contact us to discuss your specific needs and we'll create a schedule that works for you.
We collect all standard commercial cooking oils including vegetable oil, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, palm oil, and blended cooking oils. The oil should be free from excessive water, cleaning chemicals, and non-food contaminants, as these affect the quality of the biodiesel we produce from it. For waste engine oil, motor oil, and industrial lubricants, we operate a separate specialist service — see our engine oil collection page for details.
For most businesses we can have a collection schedule in place within 5 to 10 working days of your initial enquiry. This covers delivering your storage container, agreeing collection frequency, and confirming your first pickup date. If you need an urgent first collection, call us directly and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
