Waste Grease Collection & Disposal

Waste grease covers the grease-laden fats and skimmings that build up around production lines, cook rooms and collection areas. We remove it and leave the area clean.

What waste grease is

The material itself — where it starts, what changes it, and why it still has value.

Waste grease is the mixed, grease-laden fat that accumulates around production lines, cook rooms, skim tanks and collection points. It is wetter and dirtier than fryer oil, often blended with water, solids and sanitation runoff, so it is handled as a recovery and cleanup job rather than a clean commodity pickup.

Regular removal protects drains and interceptors, keeps sanitation crews on schedule and reduces the odor and pest pressure that comes with standing fat.

How waste grease is used

Where this material does its work before and after we collect it.

Storage and handling

A few habits keep the material safe to handle and worth more when we collect it.

Use dedicated drums, totes or vacuum pump-out points, not floor drains
Separate clean fryer oil from waste grease so the clean oil keeps its value
Coordinate pickups with sanitation shifts to keep production areas clear

Recycling and payment for waste grease

Waste grease is dewatered and processed where it can be recovered; heavily contaminated material is disposed of through approved channels with documentation.
