Here is a good quote from the IKECA.com website about grease disposal:


IKECA Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Manual at ikeca.com said:
"Dispose of the wastewater in the trash cans according to the customer’s instructions. The most important thing is that the waste water goes into a drain that leads to the restaurant’s grease trap. Usually a floor sink, mop sink, or prep sink will lead to the grease trap. Put a screen over the drain to prevent solids from going into the line and clogging it up. Using a helper pour the waste liquid down the drain. Collect any solids, and put them back into the trash can. Important!" - IKECA Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Manual
 
Here is the link for that manual:

It is very extensive and covers practically every aspect of kitchen exhaust cleaning. Now that you are doing hoods in your area, it would be a good start for you to gain knowledge in the kitchen exhaust cleaning industry.
 
Here is what the IKECA manual instructs for roof clean up:

IKECA Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Manual said:
Ensure that the roof is free of dirty water from the cleaning operation. If it is not clean, spray or squeegee the excess water to the drain! If there is no roof drain or it is too far uphill, you’ll need to bring a wet vac up to the roof to get rid of the excess water.



Pick up any trash that you or your crew may have brought to the roof: drink cups, gloves, grease buckets, tools.
 
Bryan LeDanes - what is your system for roof clean up?
 
I have one and its easier, There a compound you can use that assorbs the grease and then you simply take it out in five gallon buckets.

although the method they suggest is also and alternative for me. Its just alittle messy.

Jim Zadrill tunred me on to the assorbant.
 
ya for the record it's call sphagnum peat moss...used in the oil field, with hazmat, oil spills in the ocean.

I just haven't found anything that even compares to this stuff when it comes to grease absorbent...that's why I asked.

You said "litter" hahaha
 
I like a company that has distributor pricing.

Guess how much these hinges cost.
