About Rogue Waste Recovery
Oil-Based Waste Removal Specialists Serving Texas
Welcome to Rogue Waste Recovery
your local partner in turning hazardous, oil-laden waste streams into renewable resources and clean workspaces. Founded and headquartered in Houston, we exist for a simple reason: Texas industry needed a faster, safer, and more transparent way to handle used oil and oily water. Over the last decade, we’ve grown from a single vacuum truck to a statewide fleet by keeping one promise—we treat your liability as if it were our own.
Our Mission
To protect Texas land, water, and workplaces by recovering every usable drop of oil, recycling every filter, and returning every site to compliance—efficiently, ethically, and on time.
What We Do Best
Used Oil Collection & Transport
Scheduled or on-demand pickups in 55-gallon drums up to 8,000-gallon tanks.
Oily Water Processing
On-site fluid extraction followed by separation at our Houston facility; certificates of destruction provided.
Oil Filter & Absorbent Recycling
We crush and thermal-process filters, reclaiming up to 96 % of trapped oil and recycling the steel.
Vacuum Truck Service
130-BBL DOT-code units and 70-BBL wet-vac trucks ready 24/7 for sumps, sumps, pits, and emergency spill cleanup.
Emergency Response
Two-hour arrival within the Greater Houston area for spills or storm-related overflows.
Safety & Compliance—Non-Negotiable
Our crews are 40-hour HAZWOPER certified and complete monthly confined-space rescue drills. Rogue holds active registrations with the TCEQ for used-oil transport (#TX-RWR-4521) and the EPA for hazardous materials handling. We’ve logged zero lost-time injuries since 2022 thanks to daily “Stop-Work Authority” briefings and real-time GPS fleet monitoring.
Environmental Stewardship
Last year alone we re-refined 4.8 million gallons of used oil into on-spec marine fuel and prevented 6,400 tons of CO₂ emissions compared to virgin-oil production. Every gallon we recover travels a closed-loop path—from your sump to our separation unit to Gulf Coast re-refineries—so nothing ends up in a landfill or illicit burn pit.

Texas-Wide Footprint
From our centrally located Houston headquarters we run daily routes through Harris, Fort Bend, Brazoria, and Galveston counties and maintain weekly swing service to Corpus Christi, Midland-Odessa, Beaumont-Port Arthur, and the Eagle Ford corridor. Wherever hydrocarbons flow, Rogue is within reach.
Technology That Works as Hard as You Do
Our fleet includes stainless-steel vacuum units rated to 10,000 psi, DOT 407/412 chemical tankers, and filter crushers that reclaim 96 % of trapped oil. Real-time telematics mean you get pickup confirmations and signed manifests in your inbox before our truck clears the gate.
Community & Corporate Responsibility
We sponsor Houston’s “River Clean-Up Day,” provide free oil-change recycling kits to local high-school auto-tech programs, and stage joint spill drills with the Harris County Fire Marshal’s Office each spring. Giving back isn’t PR—it’s practice.
