Used Oil Collection Services in Rochester, NY

Buffalo Biodiesel provides professional used cooking oil collection for the organizations that keep Rochester running — from government institutions and nonprofits to restaurants, grocery chains, and manufacturing facilities. Our service includes free steel containers, automated pickups, consistent routing, and payment for the oil collected.


Reliable Used Oil Collection for Every Type of Operation

Different facilities generate used cooking oil in various ways — but they all require a safe, compliant, and efficient method to remove it. Our Rochester program is built to support three major categories of commercial oil producers:


1. Government Organizations & NGOs

Safe, compliant disposal for public institutions

Municipal kitchens, correctional facilities, community centers, and nonprofits rely on consistent waste handling to meet regulatory and operational requirements. Our service ensures used oil is stored securely, collected on schedule, and processed responsibly within the U.S.

  • No-cost steel containers for institutional kitchens
  • Radar-based pickup scheduling for predictable service
  • Complete documentation for compliance and reporting
  • Reliable routing across Rochester and Monroe County
  • Oil processed domestically into biodiesel feedstock

2. Restaurants & Grocery Stores

Clean, fast, and consistent service for busy food operations

From independent restaurants to grocery chains with high-volume prepared foods, we help eliminate the mess and risk associated with storing used oil. Pickups are triggered automatically, and your team never has to chase a collection truck.

  • Free containers sized for your fryer output
  • Automated pickup alerts to avoid overflows
  • No disposal fees — you’re paid for every gallon
  • Safer back-of-house with secure oil storage
  • Direct, transparent service — no brokers

3. Manufacturers & Food Processing Facilities

High-volume oil recovery built for production environments

Manufacturing plants and food processors often generate larger, more consistent oil volumes. Our collection program is built to support these workflows with stable routing, appropriately sized containers, and compliant recycling you can count on.

  • Industrial-grade steel containers for large output
  • Scheduled or sensor-based pickups
  • Precise, predictable terms for long-term operations
  • U.S.-based recycling for responsible resource recovery
