Try the Austin Craigslist and search for WVO. I used to buy biodiesel from Alamobiodiesel, but haven't been there for a while. I was told they closed, but can't confirm.

The Hungry Horse restaurant owners on West Ave made their own. You might try there for more info. They're listed on an alternative fuels website, but for electricity, not bio. http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/progs/station_detail.php/TX/ELEC/34830
