Shortening Shuttle

Shortening Shuttle: Safe Oil Transportation

Shortening Shuttle is the inventor and manufacturer of commercial oil caddies, which brings a practical way of removing and transporting the frying oil from the fryers and ranges to the oil dumpster with enhanced security and convenience. First developed by Gary Heissen, who was running a restaurant cleaning company to find a way of safely transporting hot waste oils, Shortening Shuttle waste oil carts were purchased and patented in 1989 by David T. Hawley, who was also one of the people developing them.

Ensuring better-looking and tasting food products requires frequent changes of frying oil, but this is a dangerous task that includes emptying and transporting hot waste oil that can reach up to 300°F (148 °C). Therefore, Shortening Shuttle waste oil caddies are ideal for any restaurant, café, caterer, or hospitality establishment to minimize the risk of injuries and accidents.

Why Choose Shortening Shuttle Oil Carriers?

Shortening Shuttle offers high-quality and practical units that you should purchase because:

• All Shortening Shuttle products are manufactured from heavy-duty aluminum to make them durable enough to withstand the task they are designed for.
• These units feature baffle screens to collect the debris and prevent splashes.
• Shortening Shuttle manufactures all its products in the United States.

With well-deserved fame for inventing waste oil caddies, the company has continued its operation for over 30 years.

What are the Available Shortening Shuttle Products

Shortening Shuttle still focuses on developing and producing waste oil carts, and there are also filter papers for fryers.

The company offers two main collections of oil caddies with different features and capacities for commercial kitchens.

• Shortening Shuttle Economy Series: Produced to present a low-cost but efficient solution to oil handling needs, Shortening Shuttle Economy Series can hold up to 10.5 gal (39.7 L) or 80 Ibs (36.28 kg) of oil and extend up to 50.2 in (127.5 cm) of height to empty its load. In addition, these units have poly-carbonate handles on both sides to offer a comfortable and strong grip.
• Shortening Shuttle Simplicity Series: Simplicity Series refers to the Shortening Shuttle oil caddies with pumps.
