Arizona Waste Oil Service, Inc. (AWOS) was started by the Jeffers family in 1985 to purchase and recycle used oil in southern Arizona, selling it as a fuel oil to asphalt plants. Over the last 30 years, we’ve outlasted numerous competitors by providing our customers with great service building long-standing relationships while maintaining the highest level of integrity. It is now run by the second generation of the Jeffers family.

Soon after opening its doors AWOS saw a need for additional services and added oil filter recycling, spent anti-freeze recycling and industrial wastewater disposal. We now provide many other services such as transportation, vacuum truck service, tank cleaning, rental tanks, transformer oil recycling, as well as processing and marketing of used oil.

Arizona Waste Oil Service, Inc. asks what their customers need, provides it, and gives the kind of customer service that only a family owned and operated business can provide.

Jessie Jeffers has more than forty years of experience in the environmental oil recycling business. He is motivated to constantly grow with changing times and as a result AWOS has, and continues to, add products and services to respond to the market and meet his customers’ needs.

Jessie is also a broker and consultant on environmental matters. Due to his extensive experience, companies consult him about procuring and recycling their oils. He negotiated rail services to move petroleum products across the country in a more efficient and cost effective way and found end users for other companies’ used oil making the recycling of used oils easier and less expensive. Jessie was the mastermind behind a temporary oil farm for Davis Monthan Air Force Base, including three stations using frac tanks, filters, and pumps. DMB struggled to find someone with enough expertise willing to bid the job, and when DMB couldn’t find a company willing to take on the extreme conditions of what was needed, they called Jessie. Jessie has the industry knowledge to find a way to make any job work.
