Grease Connections has kept Davie’s ranch-style diners, university cafeterias, and rodeo concessionaires grease-violation-free since 2016, transforming fryer refuse into low-carbon biodiesel for Broward County buses and backup generators. No contracts, no hidden fees, and unlimited free pickups—no matter how many gallons you fry. Storm-sealed bins shrug off summer downpours and outsmart opportunistic ibis flocks.

Why Davie Kitchens Stick With Us (99.5 % on-time pickups in 2024)
1. Sunrise Ranch-Route Planning
Trucks finish before the I-595 / University Dr. bottleneck snarls at 6 a.m. Our routing AI dodges the daily drawbridge lift on Griffin Rd. and school-zone traffic at Western High, keeping alleys clear for produce deliveries.
2. Storm-Sealed Slimline Bins
A 140-gal bin rolls through 36-inch prep doors yet holds two fryer loads. Dual gaskets block 5-inch-per-hour rainstorms and dusty paddock breezes, keeping rebate weights spot-on.
3. Instant Digital Paperwork
Drivers scan your QR tag; e-manifests sync instantly to Broward County’s FOG portal. Email + SMS receipts arrive before the truck hits Pine Island Rd.
4. Rodeo-Week Surge—Still Free
During the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds PRCA events or Flamingo Gardens festivals, grease output can triple. We stage a pump crew behind the arena and add pickups with zero surcharges.
5. Highest Rebates, Lightning Deposits
Earn $0.42–$0.56 per gallon, ACH within 15 days of quarter close. A live dashboard tracks NYMEX veg-oil futures so you can forecast revenue.
6. Local, Multilingual Crews
Drivers live in Davie, Plantation, and Cooper City. Every team member speaks English and Spanish; one driver also speaks Portuguese for Brazilian steakhouses on SR 84.
Tailored Solutions for Davie’s Diverse Food Scene
Ranch-Style Diners & BBQ Smokehouses along Davie Rd. serve early-morning cowboys. Pickups occur between 4:30 a.m. and 6 a.m. so biscuit platters hit tables grease-free.
Nova Southeastern University Cafeterias dish 5,000 meals daily. We install 240-gal low-profile bins and service twice weekly—no surcharge.
Rodeo Concessions at Bergeron Arena spike to 300 gal/event. A dedicated vacuum tanker pumps post-show, documenting manifests for fire-marshal sign-off.
Equestrian-Trail Food Trucks at Tree Tops Park need spotless lots for evening crowds. Our shared-route plan groups five trucks into one stop, cutting fuel use 27 % and saving each vendor $115 a year.
Community Clubhouses in Long Lake Ranches require odor-free bins near pool decks. Low-profile units with carbon filters keep the patio guest-ready.
