Initially, I placed a 30-gallon plastic barrel outside one such diner that had agreed to save the used oil for me. My plan was to swap out the barrel every five weeks (the owner predicted it would take that long to fill the barrel) and replace it with an empty 30-gallon barrel. I learned two facts immediately: First, I couldn't lift the full barrel of oil onto the back of my pick-up truck. Secondly, used, hot oil will melt plastic barrels.Already Registered?
