How to Get More Grease Trap Cleaning Jobs Without Paying for Leads
Getting steady work in the grease trap cleaning business doesn’t have to mean buying cold leads or signing up for marketing services that promise too much. If you’ve got the skills, there’s a smarter (and cheaper) way to fill your schedule—without depending on middlemen.
What You Actually Need to Find Jobs
- A list of local businesses that need grease trap services (restaurants, food courts, cafeterias, etc.)
- Clean contact info (email or web contact forms work fine)
- A short, respectful outreach message that explains what you do and how you can help
You can collect all of that with a browser, a bit of time, and free tools like ChatGPT and Google Sheets. No logins. No scraping software. No pay-per-lead models.
The DIY Process (That Actually Works)
- Use ChatGPT to help you generate a business list using search modifiers (like “all restaurants in Dallas with kitchen grease trap”).
- Manually check and copy business names, websites, and emails into a spreadsheet.
- Send cold emails using proven templates. Keep it short and useful, not pushy.
- Follow up once or twice. Many deals are closed in the second message.
Why This Works for Grease Trap Services
- ✅ Most food businesses need recurring grease trap cleanings
- ✅ It’s a regulated service—compliance sells itself
- ✅ Many decision-makers respond directly to clear, helpful messages
This approach isn’t magic—it just works when you work it.
