Would help to kno where you are located.
There was some free oil in Lincoln Nebraska.
I have some you could have, but soon as you open the barrel you will puke!
Makes fine Biodiesel though.

My mom & pop restaurant turns over 10-15 gallons a week which is fine for our expected production.

You might want to fan out your search for more oil sources if you need alot a week.

Oh well guess I will have to take that stinky stuff out to the farm and get rid of it!
This time of year seems to be slow for small bar and grills and mom and pops.
I notice a BUG drop off during the winter and spring. I am hoping it picks up real soon around here. I did get 200 gallons a few weeks ago that a homebrew had and just could not keep up with hi production. I think he gave away like 600 gallons. Keep looking, you will find it, just be ready cause you could find your self spending every evening brewing trying to keep up with in coming oil!
The oil will keep but if it has water in it it will go rancid and let me tell you, it stinks big time!

275 gallon tote will take awhile to fill up if you have a small restaurant or two to pick up from.

An old friend of mine was making almost 200 gallons of BioDiesel a week but he was picking up from several locations to keep all his vehicles fed:D :sweet
