Pouring hot cooking grease down an RV drain is one of the fastest ways to create a stubborn clog in your gray tank system. The Camco 42281 Grease Storage Container gives you a safe, tidy place to collect bacon drippings, pan grease, and cooking oils while you are on the road or at the campsite -- no mess, no odor escaping the container, and no drain damage.
RV gray tanks and drain lines are not designed to handle cooking grease. Even small amounts poured repeatedly down the sink will coat pipe walls, attract debris, and eventually cause slow drains or full blockages. The Camco 42281 solves this with a dedicated, odor-containing vessel that sits right on your countertop or inside a cabinet.
The container works with replaceable foil-lined bags (Camco part 42285, sold separately). Each bag is made to hold cooking oils, fats, and grease poured directly from a hot pan. The foil lining helps solidify grease quickly and contains odors until the bag is full. When done, seal the bag and toss it in the trash -- no mess, no fuss.
Each foil-lined bag traps grease odors inside the container so your RV kitchen stays fresh even when the bag is partially full.
Wide opening accepts cooking grease poured directly from a hot skillet or pan -- no funnel needed for typical galley cooking volumes.
Keeps grease out of your gray tank and drain lines, preventing the buildup that causes slow drains and costly clogs in RV plumbing.
When the bag is full, simply close it and discard with regular trash. No special disposal required -- ideal for campground or boondocking use.
Whether you cook every meal in your rig or just a few breakfasts on a weekend trip, grease accumulation adds up fast. Full-timers will especially appreciate having a dedicated container that handles ongoing cooking waste without needing to run to a dump station or deal with gray tank grease buildup over thousands of miles.
The compact footprint -- 8.63 inches tall, 5.13 inches wide, 4.5 inches deep -- fits inside most RV kitchen cabinets or on a countertop without taking up significant space. The white plastic body is easy to wipe down on the outside.
This container ships with 3 foil-lined bags included. When you run out, Camco replacement bags (part number 42285) are sold separately on rvupgradestore.com. Each bag is designed specifically for this container and fits the opening securely. Stocking a pack of replacement bags before a long trip ensures you never have to improvise.
