SR‑54 cafés, Medical Center of Trinity cafeterias, and Starkey Ranch farmers‑market vendors pour out plenty of hot oil. We collect every gallon—free—turn it into low‑carbon biodiesel for Pasco County fleets, and pay you up to $0.50 / gal. Call or text (305) 204‑5207 anytime—our 24 / 7 crew can stage a storm‑sealed bin before your fryers heat tomorrow.
Why Trinity Kitchens Trust Us (99.5 % on‑time in 2025)
- SR‑54 Dawn Loop — Trucks sweep Trinity Blvd → SR‑54 → Little Rd 5–7 a.m., beating commuter jams and school drop‑offs.
- Hospital Surge Response — Morning rounds and late‑night ER runs spike fryer output at Medical Center of Trinity. Our on‑call tanker swaps bins twice daily—zero surcharge.
- Storm‑Proof Lids — Afternoon Gulf thunderstorms? Dual‑gasket lids keep 5‑inch‑per‑hour rain and oak leaves out, so rebate weights stay accurate.
- Top‑Scale Rebates — Health‑conscious oil (high soy blend) often pays $0.45–$0.50 / gal.
- 15‑Mile Closed Loop — Oil travels 15 mi to our Tampa BQ‑9000 refinery, then fuels Pasco school buses—short haul, super low carbon.
“Night‑shift pickups mean zero grease smell for morning patients—plus we cleared $176 last quarter.”
— D. Perez, Food Services, Medical Center of Trinity
“Food‑truck rally used to overflow by 9 p.m. Now the lot’s spotless before sunrise.”
