We schedule used cooking oil pickup around your event calendar instead of a fixed weekly day, and add on-demand pickups for big nights, sellouts, doubleheaders, playoff runs, festivals, and convention bookings. That means a pickup the morning after a sold-out event when every stand's containers are full, and lighter coverage during dark weeks. A real person answers same day, so a surprise sellout or a rescheduled event is a quick phone call, not an overflowing dock.

Yes. A venue is dozens of kitchens run by different operators, so we put the whole building on one Filtrate account. Concessionaires, premium-club caterers, suite catering, and the in-house operations team all share it, with role-based access, the venue operator sees every stand while each food-service contractor sees only its own. Pickups, schedules, container locations, and history for the entire building roll up in one dashboard.

It depends on how many fryer-equipped stands run on event day, but the per-stand numbers add up fast, industry data shows even a single fast food location averages roughly 35 pounds of used cooking oil per day (about 12,775 pounds a year), and a major venue can run dozens of fryer stands at once on a sold-out night. Because the volume is concentrated into a few hours, event-calendar timing matters far more than a fixed weekly schedule.

Yes. California requires a manifest for every commercial used cooking oil collection documenting the chain of custody to a licensed renderer, and electronic manifests are explicitly legal under the state's Uniform Electronic Transactions Act with a two-year minimum retention. You get a CDFA-compliant digital manifest after every pickup at every stand, and because the whole building is on one account those manifests consolidate into a single audit-ready record. See the rule at www.law.cornell.edu/regulations/california/3-CCR-1180.24 and the program at www.cdfa.ca.gov/AHFSS/MPES/

Yes, and with documented numbers, not estimates. Every gallon leaving your building is recorded on one account and recycled into feedstock for biodiesel and renewable diesel. Waste-feedstock biodiesel and renewable diesel deliver roughly 79 to 86 percent lower lifecycle greenhouse-gas emissions versus petroleum diesel, and renewable diesel cuts carbon intensity by about 65 percent on average. Your league, sponsor, and city green-building reports can cite documented diversion volumes and a sourced renewable-fuel pathway.

Used cooking oil is a real theft target, industry reporting estimates roughly $75 million worth is stolen each year, and the USDA values about 100 pounds at around $25, so an unsecured container on a busy loading dock or public-facing concourse is both a standing loss and a chain-of-custody gap. Every fryer-equipped stand gets a free, locked, anti-theft container sized for its space, which protects your volume and keeps the venue's manifest accurate. Background:

No. The arrangement is month-to-month with no long-term lock-in, no auto-renewal trap, and no equipment lien on the building. You can cancel anytime, and on exit your full pickup and manifest history exports cleanly so the venue's records stay intact for audits and league reporting. The service has to earn the account every period, that is the point.

We serve Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, the Inland Empire, the Bay Area, and Tacoma / the Pacific Northwest, and we are expanding. If your venue is in these regions, the whole building can go on one account. If you operate venues outside the current footprint, tell us where they are and we will notify you as we expand into those areas; we never imply coverage we do not have.
