Your Waste Oil, Gone!

Regular Collection, No Mess, No Vermin, No Spills

Oil is an essential ingredient in any kitchen. The hard part is ensuring you dispose of the old stuff safely and correctly. If you operate an industrial or commercial kitchen, you know the sheer volume of oil it goes through on a regular basis and understand the necessity of a safe and hygienic disposal solution. At Cookright, we provide cooking oil collection and disposal services across Auckland and the rest of NZ, offering a simple and convenient solution for handling your waste oil.

Contact your local VATMAN to organise a collection service.

Oil Collection Services Your Way

We provide weekly waste oil collection services to customers right across New Zealand, storing or recycling it as necessary. Our services include:

Pail Collection for Weekly Removal

Your Cookright VATMAN whisks away your waste oil weekly, using Cookright’s no-mess, clamp-shut-lid ‘Pail Collection System.’ He removes potentially dangerous, messy, smelly, and vermin-attracting waste, plus all potential spillages and accidents, from your premises. The result? An empty waste oil container you can use safely again and again.

Wheelie Bin Collection for Larger Oil Volumes

And if you are in a more remote/rural location or have extra large volumes of waste oil, Cookright VATMAN supplies you with a wheelie bin (or two) for easy filling, storage, manoeuvring, and lockability.

How to Help Your VATMAN Remove Waste Oil Easily and Quickly

Oil is a tricky substance to handle. It’s slippery, sticky, and stubborn. Here are some ways you can help your VATMAN remove waste oil safely and seamlessly.

  1. Keep the area around your used oil disposal container clear. Removing obstructions makes handling the waste easier and safer for your VATMAN and your teams.
  2. Ensure the container is locked correctly. This helps prevent any accidental falls or spills.
  3. Don’t overfill your waste oil container. This can cause the oil to leak onto your property, creating slipping hazards and a fertile breeding ground for pests and vermin. Additionally, oil waste containers exceeding their capacities are more difficult to handle. The extra weight can strain our equipment (and your VATMAN), increasing the risk of large spills and injury.
  4. Avoid using your container for alternative waste. Your waste container is for storing oil only. We are committed to a cleaner environment and recycle used oil where we can. Using your container for other purposes means more oil in waste management facilities, which increases harm to our beautiful New Zealand environment.

Committed to a Safer, Cleaner New Zealand

Every Cookright VATMAN stores and recycles your waste cooking oils so you don’t have to. We do this safely and in accordance with local council and government regulations, remaining steadfast in our commitment to environmental conservation. All the waste oil we collect is processed through Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF)-approved zero-waste processing plants. Plus, we issue certificates confirming your waste oil has been officially removed and recycled. Done!
