A Message from Our Founder
My name is Dylan Gehrken. I started Greasecycle in 2009 to partner with restaurants like yours. Here in Darlington, we know your challenges; from NASCAR week rushes to everyday margins. We’re neighbors, just minutes away. My promise: we’ll turn your used oil from a headache into reliable revenue. Every pickup, every time.
Dylan, Founder & President
Here’s How to Turn Oil Into Revenue
Step 1: We Install Your Container (48 hours)
We bring the right sized tank to your back door. Indoor or outdoor placement. Lockable lids prevent theft. Takes 20 minutes.
Step 2: You Fill, We Empty (Every 7-30 days)
Your team dumps oil when convenient. We pump it clean on schedule no calls needed. Our trucks arrive anytime during the day.
Step 3: You Get Paid (Quarterly)
Direct deposit or check every three months. Average restaurant earns $100 to 300 per quarter. We provide weight tickets and payment statements.

Stay Compliant, Skip the Fines
South Carolina requires proper oil disposal (Regulation 61-107.279). We handle everything:
- SCDES permitted hauling with valid transporter ID
- Paperwork stored 3 years for inspectors
- Darlington County health department approved
- Proof of recycling for your records
Improper disposal fines start at $1,000. One overflow can cost $10,000. We keep you covered.
Your Oil Becomes Carolina Biodiesel
We deliver your oil to processing facilities in North Carolina. It becomes biodiesel that cuts emissions by 86% versus regular diesel. School buses and delivery trucks run cleaner because of your oil. You help Darlington meet sustainability goals while earning money.
Testimonials
We love our customers
I have been working with greasecycle for almost a year and have no complaints. James made sure I have ample room for my disposed oil and the regular clean outs of the bins are quick and on time. If you are questioning your services now give them a call. I’m glad I did!”

I don’t use Greasecycle for their services, but my customers do. I have referred business to them and they have always been prompt to call back. While networking in the hospitality industry, I always ask my customers what vendors they use, Greasecycle’s name comes up most of the time, and with great feedback. Keep up the great work.
