Most sumpings also have turbine oil 2380? which has good lube properties.
The biggest concern will be water and particulate contaminants.  I 
have used a high diet of sumped Jet A, particularily when I'm busy 
flying turbine aircraft.  I just dump the sumpings into an approved
can, and then filter when transferring to my car.

Shreaded parafin would work nice in the summer, to add lube.

Hard to get real large quantities, because a large operator usually gets
a waste oil recovery facility to haul it away.
