Grease Connections
Used Cooking Oil Collection Alabama
From Birmingham meat-and-threes firing up the fryers at sunrise to Gulf Shores kitchens dropping fresh shrimp long past midnight, Alabama’s fryers never quit—and neither does Grease Connections. Our licensed, fully insured trucks roll every day from Huntsville down to Mobile and out across the Wiregrass, hauling off every last drop of used oil and refining it into clean biodiesel that keeps local school buses running.

Hometown Advantage for Your Fryers
From before dawn biscuit and catfish runs in Birmingham to all day shrimp boils down on Dauphin Island, we share the same roads; and the same clock; as your kitchen. Our crews slip past downtown Birmingham construction, work around Tuscaloosa and Auburn game-day crowds, and beat the Causeway backup into Mobile so your bin is empty well before the lunch rush; even when a Talladega race weekend packs the interstate or festival season lights up Gulf Shores.
Why keeping it in-state matters:
- Simple compliance: Digital manifests satisfy every ADEM and county rule with no extra paperwork on your end.
- Quicker pickups: Tighter routes mean service shows up on time—no skipped stops.
- Lower cost & emissions: Our trucks refill in-state, so your rebate isn’t eaten up by empty interstate miles.
Partner with us and your used oil fuels Alabama school buses, your dollars stay in local hands, and your kitchen stays grease-free—no matter what the Yellowhammer State calendar throws your way.

Our Core Services
One partner, five purpose‑built services—so you can focus on the food, not the grease.
Used Cooking‑Oil Pickup
Expect clean, odor free bins every single time. Our licensed crews run tight daily routes that never skip a stop, trim fuel miles, and leave you set for the next fry cycle—no mess, no smell, no surprises.
Used Cooking‑Oil Recycling
Turn waste into revenue and goodwill. Every gallon we haul off earns you a straightforward quarterly rebate and gets refined into clean biodiesel that keeps Alabama fleets rolling.
Grease Disposal & Bulk Hauling
Clear huge volumes of oil in a single visit. Our high capacity tankers haul large loads safely and by the book, freeing up space and saving you the hassle of multiple pickups.
Grease Trap Pump‑Out & Line Jetting
Stop pricey backups before they start. Our team vacuums traps, scrapes the walls, and power-jets your lines, keeping drains flowing and inspectors happy.
Emergency Overflow & Spill Response
Breathe easy knowing help is close by. Our 24/7 crews reach major metros within four hours, contain spills fast, and get you back up and running without fines or lost sales.
Compliance & Paperwork
Every pickup automatically creates a digital record recognized by ADEM—the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, the agency that enforces the state’s environmental rules—so your kitchen stays fully compliant with no added effort. Our licensed, hazmat-certified drivers log seal numbers and total gallons on a tablet, then email you a secure PDF report before the truck pulls away from Birmingham, Mobile, or anywhere in between.
We also handle every grease control form required by Jefferson and Shelby counties and keep five years of records in an online portal you can pull up in seconds. No extra permits, no stacks of paperwork; just instant access the moment an inspector asks. Straightforward, stress-free compliance that lets you focus on the food while we help keep the Yellowhammer State clean and thriving.
