We pick up used oil, filters, antifreeze, and oily water from more than 35,000 businesses, then re-refine the oil into new base oil at our plant in Peachtree City, Ga.
We reply the same business day. No account needed to ask.
Most customers have us collect several of these items on the same visit. If you are not sure which one applies to what is sitting in your shop, give us a call and we'll help you pinpoint what service is needed.
Scheduled or on-call collection of used motor and industrial oil, from a single tank to a multi-site account.
Used oil pickupWe take your used oil filters and leave you an empty container for the next batch.
Filter collectionNon-hazardous petroleum-contaminated water, pumped and hauled by our own drivers.
Oily wastewaterCradle-to-grave handling of regulated and hazardous waste: on-site assessment, waste profiles and manifests, transport and disposal. Kept separate from the used oil we re-refine.
Hazardous wasteVacuum trucks and trained operators for backed-up pits, sumps and slow-moving systems.
Vacuum servicesWe supply new absorbents and collect the used ones on your regular route.
Absorbent collectionSolvent and aqueous units, manual or automatic, serviced on-call or on a set schedule.

Antifreeze collectionNot sure what category your waste falls into? Describe it to us and we will tell you whether we can take it.
Ask about your siteHere is exactly what happens, from your first call to the receipt in your inbox.
Call or send the form. We need your location, what you want collected, and roughly how much.
We reply with an ETA and book the first date a driver is in your area. If it's urgent, tell us. Next-day pickup is often possible.
Our own driver, in our own truck. Drivers, trucks, trailers, insurance and training are all UES. Nothing you have to handle or store.
Your driver records the pickup on the spot. A receipt is emailed to you at the time of service and a copy is stored so you can pull up a past pickup at any time.
Generating used oil makes you responsible for it until it is properly recycled. We handle the paperwork side of that, on every pickup, without you having to ask.
The oil our trucks pick up goes to our re-refinery in Peachtree City, Ga. Most of it is processed back into base oil for new lubricants. Oil that is not suitable for re-refining is used as fuel oil for industrial plants. UES is part of Avista Oil.
Contaminants that would be released if used oil were simply burned are captured instead and recycled into an asphalt compound.
Inside the re-refineryWe run collection routes in 28 states. Open your state for local coverage, service details and the number to call.
These are unedited comments from customers on our routes.
"I have been dealing with my driver for 15–20 years, and I am always very pleased with the service."
"My driver came when I was extremely busy, so he came back on Saturday. It was even his day off. I really appreciated that."
"We have the nicest and best delivery and pick-up guys out of all the vendors."
We run an Environmental, Health and Safety Management program built on driver and employee training, near-miss and incident investigation, and recurring internal facility audits. It covers federal, state, and local requirements in every state we operate in.
