A free container delivered to your restaurant, scheduled pickup, and payment per gallon for your used cooking oil.
Kabu Grease is a Minneapolis-based used cooking oil collection service. We deliver a free collection container to your kitchen, pick up your used fryer oil on a set schedule, and pay you per gallon at every pickup. Payment depends on how much oil we collect and the current market for used cooking oil.
That means no hauling oil out the back door, no overflowing buckets, and no calling around each time your container fills up.
We pick up from restaurants, bakeries, and food trucks across the city, including:
We also serve the surrounding suburbs, up to 100 miles from the Twin Cities. Not sure about your address? Call (612) 562-8783 (call or text).
Fats, oils, and grease poured into a drain harden in the pipes and cause backups. The City of Minneapolis publishes guidance on fats, oils, and grease for food businesses. Having used cooking oil collected by a scheduled pickup service is one simple way to keep fryer oil out of your plumbing. If your kitchen also has a grease trap, we offer grease trap cleaning as an add-on.
