Used Cooking Oil & Grease Resources
Practical guides for commercial kitchens and food manufacturers on storage, safety, compliance and getting the most value from your used oil and fats.
Guides
Short, actionable resources for facility managers and kitchen operators.
How to Store Used Cooking Oil Safely
Keep oil in sealed, labeled containers away from heat and water. Proper storage improves recycling value and reduces slip hazards.
Food Manufacturing Waste Oil Best Practices
Track oil generation by line, keep totes off the floor and schedule pickups before containers overflow.
What Affects Used Cooking Oil Value
Moisture, solids, foreign material and container condition all influence recovery value and pickup logistics.
Grease Trap vs. Used Oil Collection
Grease traps intercept wastewater grease. Used oil collection removes liquid and solid fryer fats before they reach the drain.
Compliance & Manifests
Document every pickup with weight, material type and destination for internal reporting and regulatory record keeping.
Bulk Oil Disposal Checklist
Inventory containers, confirm material type, verify access for pump-out or tote exchange, and request documentation.
Case studies
We do not publish unverified customer case studies. As we complete documented projects with client approval, verified case studies will appear here.
