SVO Suppliers

[(RIP) PLANK]

I don't know if there is a thread on this, but who know of any good, cheap - or better still good and cheap, suppliers for SVO. Preferably close to me, but hopefully this will do us all some good :thumb2

I'm thinking about another IBC myself.....


EDIT - a bit of research shows it should be even better than sunflower oil, as its even thinner......

Im just about to get prices from this lot for 25 ltr cans or similar, I'll let you know what it looks like.:thumb2

Rapeseed seems to be highly recommended because of its low viscosity, so I'm getting keener with every minute!

Zippy their rapeseed is £21 for 20 litres delivered, so £1.05/ltr. Could be a lot worse...and no need to collect it either! Waiting on price for veg.

If you ran 50/50 at that price, your average fuel cost per litre would be around £1.17p.......its not great but better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick eh?!

im getting 20lt for £20.29 from bookers.
just looking to get some for below £1 / lt...

what is it though? I suspect this 100% rapeseed is much better to run than cheap veg oil from mixed sources.....

 

[zippy656]

true enough.. will give them a call when im in need of some more

Yep he said same price collected or delivered, but they are in Southwark and I don't speak Londonese......:doh

 

[(RIP) PLANK]

he can't supply me but he did give me an interesting contact for another place in liverpool. Haven't tried them yet though :thumb2

But Planky let us know if there are any hidden catches; he may think twice if he has to deliver outside London, these people can be very parochial in the Smoke....:doh

I thought you had to have a trade card anyway to use Bookers? are there different levels of discount then?

Tescos was £1 a litre last week. I got 24 litres with some clubcard vouchers I got when filling with their crappy diesel last year - cost me £2 delivered !

well we have a kosher business but it sounded like there were traders and traders...?

PLANK why couldn't he supply? was it a distance issue?

Failing that, try the North Wales site that has a place in Wolverhampton I posted....that seemed to be 90p/litre collected but not sure about quantities.....
