Kitchen Grease Recycling

Kitchen grease recycling is the collection of used cooking oil and the handling of grease that comes out of a food-service kitchen. It includes the caddy, the container, the pickup, and the path that oil can take toward a fuel plant.

The posts follow full-service collection, outdoor containment, indoor ideas that belong with the kitchen, a processing-plant note, containers, and the difference between a kitchen program and a trap pump-out. A trap is a related service. It is not the same load as used cooking oil.

GREASE.ORG picks up used cooking oil and can pump the trap on a separate visit. Use this category to read how a kitchen stores and hands off its grease, then schedule a pickup when the container is ready.
