I thought I saw a thread on here about this before, but now I cannot find it. I am looking for someone that deals with waste oil, hopefully for regular pickups and a 55 gallon drum or two. My friend and I do a lot of side work at his house and usually go through about 40-50 gallons every few weeks. Right now we have just been taking it into work, where they get paid for it (but we don't). I'd rather find someone local that would be willing to pick it up...and maybe pay a little bit for it. If anyone knows anyone that does this, please reply.

contact late model throttle, (http://brewcitymuscle.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37170) Jeff aka slowc5 (http://brewcitymuscle.com/forum/member.php?u=332) or Kyle aka A B4C Z (http://brewcitymuscle.com/forum/member.php?u=52). Their shop uses up the oil for their heater.

Yeah, Jeff's Dad uses it to heat his shop. We supply him with some if needed, but as long as it is clean, give him a shout.

Only issue with waste oil is if it is "dirty" it will ash more when burnt. This jacks up the waste oil burners and cuts the BTU considerably. Most of our "waste" is actually NEW base stock from blending in our plant. We get about 5 gallons overflow per batch and we accumulate it quite regularly.

Right now we get paid a small amount from OSI to come suck it out of our 500 gallon waste tank.

Do you have any 55 gallon drums? Would you be willing to pick it up? The house is located on the outskirts of east troy.
