Free Waste Oil Collection in London

Used engine oil, gearbox oil and hydraulic oil have a resale value once re-refined, which is why we collect them free of charge from London garages, MOT stations, fleet depots and workshops when the volume makes the trip worthwhile – as a rule, a full 205-litre drum, a 1,000-litre IBC, or a bulk tank.

What is not free: small domestic quantities (a few litres from a home oil change – your council recycling centre takes those), oil contaminated with water, coolant, brake fluid or solvents, and cooking oil, which goes down a different route. Contaminated oil still gets collected, but it is a hazardous waste consignment rather than a free pick-up, and it is priced as such.

Every collection comes with a hazardous waste consignment note, which your business must keep for three years. Tell us the volume and the container type when you call 08 00 599 99 96 and we will confirm straight away whether it qualifies as a free collection.

Free or Charged?

Free: clean used mineral oil in drums, IBCs or tanks from a trade address.

Charged: contaminated oil, mixed lubricants, oily water, filters and rags.

Take it to the tip: under about 20 litres from a private car – most London HRRCs accept it.

Different service: cooking oil – see food waste recycling.
