Environmental and Legal Importance

Disposing of cooking oil and grease improperly is a serious environmental hazard. It can lead to clogged drainage systems, pollution of waterways, and damage to local infrastructure. Our service ensures proper recycling and traceability, meeting UK waste regulation standards.

When your oil is collected, it is processed into biodiesel — a cleaner-burning alternative to diesel fuel. This reduces carbon emissions and supports the UK's effort to achieve net-zero carbon targets. Waste oils are a vital part of the circular economy, transforming what was once discarded into something of long-term value.

Compliance and Documentation

As per UK law, businesses must track how waste is stored, transferred, and treated. We provide a Waste Transfer Note for every pickup. This serves as your legal proof of proper disposal and keeps you prepared for inspections.

If you're unfamiliar with regulatory requirements, don't worry — we walk you through the entire process and make sure your business remains compliant without added stress.
