Hassle free grease service that pays you
We collect your used cooking oil at no charge, pay you a clear quarterly rebate on every gallon, and leave a digital manifest that satisfies the Macon Water Authority’s records in seconds. You never sign a long term contract and you can call for an extra pickup any time; twenty four hours, seven days, three hundred sixty five days a year.
How the free pickup works
First, you tell us how many fryers you run and how often they empty. We match you with a sealed 70, 140, or 300 gallon container that locks away odors and blocks grease thieves. Our local driver rolls up on the day you choose, vacuums the oil in minutes, and emails you a pickup receipt before the truck leaves the lot. The load travels straight to our Georgia biorefinery, where it is refined into low carbon biodiesel for regional fleets. Your rebate posts the first Friday after the quarter closes; no paperwork, no phone tag.
Stay ahead of Macon Water Authority rules
The Authority inspects every commercial grease trap once each quarter. We automatically attach each pickup manifest to your account dashboard, so inspectors see your pump out history, container size, and trap capacity in a single PDF. Need the Grease Management Coordinator on the line? We keep the direct 478 464 5643 number on speed dial.

Why Central Georgia kitchens choose Grease Connections
Average stops in Bibb County yield 95 gallons, and every gallon earns a cash rebate, not a vague credit. Our on call response time inside the I-475 loop is six hours or less, confirmed by live GPS on every truck. Technicians carry ServSafe and confined space cards, so they can handle traps, interceptors, and back of house pressure washes without calling another vendor. In the rare event of a spill, the cleanup crew launches within sixty minutes, documented for your insurer.
From fryer to fuel: the Macon biodiesel loop
Your spent oil travels forty two miles to our partner refinery, where transesterification turns it into ultra low sulfur biodiesel that now powers school buses in Houston and Peach Counties. Every pickup cuts greenhouse gas emissions by eighty two percent compared with petroleum diesel and keeps fats, oils, and grease out of Ocmulgee River waters.
Service area & schedule
We run bi weekly routes across Macon, Warner Robins, Perry, and Forsyth, weekly routes along I-75 down to Cordele, and on demand pickups for any kitchen within seventy miles of Cherry Street fountain. Call before noon for same day service; after noon we guarantee next day before lunch.
Macon Frequently Asked Questions
What rebate can I expect per gallon?
We pay a floating market rate that averaged $0.42 per gallon last quarter. Your exact rate is locked in writing before the first pickup, so you always know the payout window.
Do I have to sign a long term contract?
No. Our agreements renew month to month, mirroring the flexible terms highlighted by other independent haulers in Georgia.
Which container sizes do you offer for Macon kitchens?
Choose from 70, 140, or 300 gallon leak proof tanks. We also install secure indoor systems to deter grease theft.
Can you service food trucks and mobile caterers?
Yes. We schedule on site swaps of 55 gallon drums or curbside caddies that fit tight footprints, addressing the unique grey water rules for mobile units.
Do you clean grease traps, too?
Absolutely. Pairing trap cleaning with oil pickup keeps you compliant and can trim surcharge fees.
What if my tank overflows or leaks?
Call our 24/7 spill team. A compliant cleanup crew is dispatched within six hours inside Bibb County, following the Macon Water Authority’s spill report protocol.
How do I prove compliance during quarterly inspections?
Every manifest is auto saved as a PDF in your dashboard and includes the inspector’s preferred fields (volume, container ID, and disposal site) to meet section 4.3 of MWA’s Sewer Use Rules.
Is the oil really recycled into biodiesel?
Yes. Loads travel to our Georgia partner refinery that converts grease into low carbon biodiesel; a pathway similar to programs showcased by city utilities and haulers in Florida and elsewhere.
How do you prevent grease theft?
Our indoor tanks use proprietary quick connect hoses compatible only with our trucks, the same anti theft approach championed by national providers.
What areas around Macon do you cover?
We run bi weekly routes through Warner Robins, Perry, Forsyth, and anywhere within a 70 mile radius of downtown. Outside that ring, on demand pickups are scheduled within 48 hours.
