Another effect of the high vegetable oil prices: restaurants are trying to get more use out of the oil than before. Restaurants that used to change their oil every week are now trying to squezze 10-14 days out of the oil. Means there's less oil, and it's uglier.

I also foresee paying for used oil within the next year or two.

Do you collect the oil in cubees/pails, or do your restaurants have drums that you have to collect it from? My new source needs me to set up a drum, so I'm making a sucker tank for collecting it.
