Everything you need to know about pricing, containers, coverage, and getting started with Prime Oil Recovery.
We're a used cooking oil collection service based in North Carolina. We install containers, collect used cooking oil from restaurants, hotels, and food-service businesses, and pay for oil that meets our quality standards. Founded in 2024, we operate statewide across all 100 NC counties.
No — we're a mobile, on-site service. Our team comes to you for pickups and container installation; there's no walk-in location. Call or WhatsApp us at (646) 314-2056 to schedule anything.
All 100 counties of North Carolina, plus Anderson and the surrounding Upstate South Carolina area. We have dedicated coverage pages for our most active areas — see our full service-area list on the Coverage page.
Up to $1.50 per gallon, depending on oil quality. We assess quality with a simple visual purity check at pickup — mainly checking for water or soap contamination.
We use a simple grading scale based on purity — clean oil free of water or soap contamination earns the higher end of our rate range.
Payment is made on the schedule agreed with our team, on time, every visit — no chasing invoices.
55, 150, and 300-gallon containers, sized to match your kitchen's real volume. We help you choose the right size when we set up your account.
We install the container as part of setting up your account — there's no cost to get one installed at the start of service.
Pickup frequency is based on your actual volume, not a fixed one-size schedule. We'll set an initial schedule and adjust it as needed.
Reach out for an emergency pickup — we can accommodate unscheduled collections when a container fills ahead of schedule.
Yes. Tell us about your current provider and contract situation when you request a quote, and we'll walk you through what switching looks like for your specific case.
Any fee would depend on your existing contract with your current provider, not on us — we don't charge a switching fee ourselves. Check your current agreement, and we're happy to help you understand the process.

Your business name, location, and an estimate of your monthly oil volume — even a rough estimate is fine. We'll take it from there.
