Dunno about anywhere else, but here in Oregon a company called Sequential Biofuels has exclusive contracts with Burgerville (local fast-food chain) and Kettle Chips (local but nationally distributed potato-chip producer) to do just that with their used oil. They supply all of the retail biodiesel pumps I know of in the Portland area. Not that I've visited one of their pumps in quite a while, unfortunately---I pass by one every night on the way home and the last time I looked at the price it was approaching $6/gallon. (There was a scraggly W123 sitting next to it, but unoccupied and not fueling up as far as I could tell---perhaps its no doubt equally scraggly, bearded owner abandoned it in despair?)
