Fryer Oil Disposal and Recycling Services

Cooking oil can be used for several frying sessions until it has passed its useful life. After the cooking oil is used, it needs to be transferred to a proper grease storage tank until it is picked up for recycling. Ensuring proper UCO storage and regular pickups creates a safer working environment by preventing spills and injuries and helps protect the natural environment. Setting up regular UCO pickups with Mahoney Environmental will ensure that the UCO is recycled.

Restaurant Grease Trap Cleaning and Installation

Commercial kitchens that use cooking oil must have working grease traps to keep fats, oil, and grease (FOG) from being washed into the sewer system. Allowing FOG to be washed down the drain can cause damage to the sewer system and pollute the natural environment. Washing FOG down the drain may also violate city ordinances which can lead to fines for your business.

Restaurant grease traps use a system of baffles to separate FOG from the wastewater and contain them within the trap. The built-up FOG needs to be cleaned out from the trap regularly before it becomes enough to clog the trap.

Clogged grease traps can cause the following problems:

Flooding in the kitchen
Foul odors
Expensive remediation services
Contamination and health issues
Fines
Business closure

Cooking oil must be stored and handled properly in commercial kitchens before and after use.
