Fryer Oil Handling & Disposal Systems for Restaurants

Safely transport, filter, and dispose of used cooking oil with systems designed for busy restaurant kitchens. Reduce spills, improve safety, and streamline operations.

Fryer Oil Management Built for Restaurant Kitchens

Restaurant kitchens that change fryer oil 2–5 times per week face real risks: hot oil burns, slip-and-fall accidents from spills, and the rising cost of cooking oil. The Shortening Shuttle® addresses all three — with a sealed, wheeled oil transport system that eliminates lifting, prevents spills, and can extend oil life by up to 50% when paired with The BOSS® filtration system.

Whether you run a full-service restaurant, QSR, or fast casual operation, every Shortening Shuttle® is made in the USA with commercial-grade aluminum construction and backed by a 1-year manufacturer's defect warranty.
