Restaurant grease services in Baltimore.

GreaseGiant gives Baltimore restaurants one company for both sides of grease: used cooking oil pickup that pays you aggressive market rates, and grease trap cleaning that meets the Baltimore City DPW FOG program. From the crab houses of Fells Point to the kitchens of Hampden, it's one truck relationship, one invoice, and one number to call.

One company for fryer oil and grease traps in Baltimore

GreaseGiant handles both streams of Baltimore restaurant grease: we collect and pay for your used cooking oil, and we pump and clean your grease trap on the Baltimore City DPW FOG schedule. One vendor, one invoice, one dispatcher who owns both — instead of juggling a fryer-oil hauler and a separate trap pumper.

Baltimore kitchens — especially the seafood and crab houses along the harbor — generate serious volumes of both fryer oil and trap grease. We size your service to that reality and keep both on one account.

Used cooking oil pickup in Baltimore

Your fryer oil is yellow grease — a commodity refiners turn into renewable fuel. We pay Baltimore restaurants market rates by the pound, install locked and monitored containers (grease theft is real in dense neighborhoods), and book pickups before you overflow. How UCO collection works →

Grease trap cleaning & Baltimore FOG rules

Baltimore City requires food service establishments to clean grease traps at least every 90 days and before they reach 25% capacity, keep three years of manifests, and use proper waste hauling. GreaseGiant pumps the full trap, jets the line when it backs up, leaves a signed manifest, and times service to your fill rate so you stay compliant.

The program is enforced by Baltimore City DPW under its EPA/MDE consent decree — a failed inspection or a sewer backup traced to your trap can mean fines and cleanup costs. We keep you ahead of it. How grease trap service works →

Frequently asked questions

How often must Baltimore restaurants clean their grease trap?

Baltimore City's FOG program requires grease traps to be cleaned at least every 90 days, and always before fats, oils, grease, and solids exceed 25% of the trap's capacity — whichever comes first. High-volume kitchens need more frequent service. The program is run by Baltimore City DPW under a federal consent decree with the EPA and the Maryland Department of the Environment, and you must keep three years of cleaning records on site.

Do you pay Baltimore restaurants for used cooking oil?

Yes. We pay Baltimore kitchens market rates by the pound for clean fryer oil and supply locked containers so it doesn't get stolen off your back lot. See how UCO pickup works.
