Gainesville's restaurant mix runs from 13th Street spots near the University of Florida campus to larger kitchens around Butler Plaza and Tioga Town Center. Grand Natural plans used cooking oil collection around each kitchen's rhythm, with tighter scheduling during the academic year when campus-area volume increases.

FL Used Oil and Cooking Oil Rules

Florida's used oil recycling program is run through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), which offers a voluntary program for small quantities of used oil. FDEP also administers grease waste rules for restaurants and other food-service "originators" under Section 403.0741, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 62-705, Florida Administrative Code. Licensed haulers must complete a service manifest for every grease waste pickup.
