Fryer Oil Disposal and Recycling Services

Cooking oil has a limited useful life and once it can no longer be used, it needs to be stored in the proper containers.  Foodservice businesses need to have their UCO picked up regularly for recycling to help prevent injuries and burns from spills and ensure that the oil does not affect the natural environment.  Working with Mahoney Environmental is a great way for commercial kitchens to ensure regular UCO pickups.

Restaurant Grease Trap Cleaning and Installation

It is important for commercial kitchens to have grease traps to filter the fats, oil, and grease (FOG) from going down the drain with the wastewater.  FOG solidifies in water which can cause damage to the plumbing and sewage system that can even affect the natural environment.  Washing FOG down the drain also violates municipal codes which can result in fines.

Grease traps separate FOG from the wastewater with a system of baffles that causes these materials to rise up from the water and get caught in the trap.  The buildup of FOG needs to be cleaned out regularly or it could clog the trap and cause the following problems:

• Kitchen flooding
• Expensive remediation services
• Foul odors
• Contamination and health issues
• Fines
• Business closure
