Eazy Grease provides reliable used cooking oil recycling for food businesses across Tennessee. We supply secure containers, handle scheduled pickups, and ensure proper, eco-friendly disposal.
Various counties across the state offer facilities for used oil collection and recycling, including drop-off points in Nashville, Memphis, and Knoxville. Residents can use the TDEC Interactive Recycling Map to find local options. Cooking oil can also be poured into designated recycling bins at primary convenience center locations, which helps prevent sewer overflows.
Commercial kitchens can dispose old cooking oil with a vendor. The vendor must use licensed recycling services to comply with state environmental regulations.
Used cooking oil should never be poured down drains as it causes sewer clogs and pipe corrosion. Allow it to cool completely before handling, then seal it and bring it to a designated drop-off location. Food service businesses are encouraged to work with local recyclers to convert grease into biodiesel and other sustainable resources.
For commercial kitchens, partnering with a licensed oil collection service is the most efficient and compliant solution.
Residents can take used cooking oil to designated Metro convenience centers or other county recycling facilities. Many types of cooking oil are accepted, including vegetable oils and animal fats. Never dispose of household cooking oil in the trash or down the drain, as it causes costly plumbing damage and environmental harm. Check the TDEC Interactive Recycling Map for the most convenient drop-off location near you.
The value of used cooking oil fluctuates with market conditions. Partnering with an oil collection service like Eazy Grease allows commercial kitchens to earn money through rebate programs based on the volume they collect. Clean, uncontaminated oil from fryers commands the best rates. Contact us directly to learn what your current cooking oil usage could earn.
Proper handling and storage are essential to prevent spills, injuries, and theft in food service businesses. Once collected, your oil is recycled into sustainable products such as renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel. Businesses that recycle their oil contribute directly to sustainability initiatives and help reduce the environmental impact of their operations.
Grease traps work by separating fats, oils, and grease from wastewater, which helps maintain the integrity of the sewer system. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent clogs and costly plumbing issues in commercial kitchens. Failure to clean grease traps regularly can lead to environmental pollution and potential fines for violating municipal codes. Staying on top of grease trap upkeep protects your business and keeps you compliant.
Automated oil management systems can significantly reduce the hazards and stresses associated with manual cooking oil handling in commercial kitchens. These systems allow for remote monitoring of oil usage, ensuring timely replenishment and reducing the risk of running out of oil during service. Automated handling also creates a cleaner and safer kitchen environment by minimizing direct contact with hot oil from fryers, reducing the risk of spills and burns to employees.
We provide containers designed to prevent leaks and contain odors, ensuring safe storage in commercial kitchens. Oil containers range in size from 55 to 240 gallons, accommodating operations from small cafes to large commercial kitchens. Properly designed containers reduce the risk of spills and injuries, promoting a safer working environment for your staff. All units are installed at no cost to your business.
Flexible pickup services can be tailored to fit the specific schedule and needs of each business, allowing for collection before storage tanks become full. We offer 24/7 support and can adjust collection times to ensure minimal disruption to kitchen operations.
