Abstract

An improved container for heating grease in a truck including a waste grease holding tank and a heating tank for immersion of a waste grease container into a vat of hot water for loosening the grease in the waste grease container so that the grease in the waste grease container can be dumped into the grease holding tank of the truck. The vat of hot water includes three double walled sides in which an upper edge of the double walls include a plurality of spaced hot water inlet apertures and the bottom of the double wall include fewer smaller drain apertures. The same three sides include hot water flow areas through which hot water flows in order to heat water in the heating tank. The double-walled sides for chambers which receive overflow hot water when a large waste grease container is placed in the vat. These chambers prevent spilling the hot water over the edges of the tank. When the waste grease container is removed the hot water seeks its own level by the water in chambers of the double walls leaking out through the small outlet apertures at the bottom of the double wall. The vat thus recycles hot water for future use in loosening grease in other waste grease containers.
