How do I get started?+
Submit the online form with your location, material type, and approximate volume. We'll confirm service availability, accepted material, container needs, and the first pickup plan.
How do pickups work?+
Pickup frequency depends on your location, material, and volume. We confirm the schedule during onboarding, and you can contact us online when service needs change.
What size container do I need?+
It depends on how much waste you produce. When you sign up we'll help you choose the right container size for your volume.

Every load is weighed, logged, and sampled, then filtered and processed. We recover usable oil with an Alfa Laval centrifuge, refine it, and manufacture biodiesel and clean byproducts, recovering value most companies throw away.
Do you offer additional services?+
Yes, our drivers can note requests such as grease-trap cleaning or hood cleaning during pickup.
How long have you been in business?+
We've been recycling since 2013, founded by Joe Patton, a Penn State–trained mechanical engineer.
