Why our collection service saves hassle
Less waste admin

Blue barrels help keep waste oil contained and ready for an easy pickup.
Paperwork with each uplift
Waste transfer notes are issued at collection to support your records.
Take waste oil off your hands properly
Used frying oil soon becomes a storage and compliance problem if collections are not organised properly. At The Cooking Oil Guys Ltd, we collect waste cooking oil from pubs, restaurants and hospitality sites in Colchester and take it on for recycling, so you do not need a separate disposal arrangement. We can supply blue barrels for tidy storage between visits and organise collections around your output, available space and kitchen routine. That keeps spills down, reduces clutter and helps staff know exactly where waste oil needs to go.
Simple pickups with the records to match
A smooth pickup matters just as much as a planned schedule. With The Cooking Oil Guys Ltd, collections can be set for regular intervals or adjusted when trade changes, and quick response may be possible for existing customers when barrels fill faster than expected. We handle the practical side from uplift to recycling and provide waste transfer notes for each collection, giving you a clear record of lawful waste movement without extra chasing or separate paperwork.
Frequently asked questions
Do you provide containers for used oil on site?
Yes. We can supply blue barrels to keep used oil contained between collections. We will talk through sensible placement, keeping lids shut and making sure only used cooking oil goes in, which helps staff keep the area tidy and supports onward recycling.
Will we get paperwork when you collect waste oil?
Yes. We provide waste transfer notes as part of the collection service. Those notes create a clear record of what was collected, when it was lifted and where the transfer took place, helping with your duty of care records and internal checks.
How often can collections be arranged?
Collection frequency is shaped around how much oil your site produces and how much storage space you have. Some kitchens need regular planned pickups, while others need a lighter schedule with the option of quick support if volumes suddenly rise.
