Green Gobbler Industrial Strength Grease and Hair Drain Clog Remover | Drain Cleaner Gel | Safe for Pipes, Toilets, Sinks, Tubs, Drains & Septic Systems | 1 Gallon

I have long hair and even though I'm careful not to let hair go down the drain, hair always ends up clogging the drain until one day, the tub didn't drain at all. A neighbor highly recommended Green Gobbler but it would've taken almost a week to be delivered by Amazon so I got a leading brand product from the grocery store because I didn't want to wait. After doing 5 treatments with the entire bottle of the leading brand which did nothing, I actually made the problem worse when I used a plunger that caused smelly black gunk to come up from the drain and into my tub. Decided to order Green Gobbler and thankfully I only had to wait a few days. I have to admit, I was skeptical that Green Gobbler would even work. But I kept my fingers crossed. By the time the Green Gobbler arrived, the water in my tub had drained enough that I could pour almost all 16 ounces of the recommended amount down my drain. Treatment #1: Poured 16 ounces Green Gobber down the drain. Waited 4 hours. Poured 3 pots of boiling water (approx 3 gallons) down the drain but it all accumulated in my tub. Treatment #2: 6 hours later, the water drained enough so that I could pour another 16 ounces of GG down the drain. Decided to wait 24 hours before I poured another 3 gallons of boiling water down the drain in hopes that the extra hours would help. This time, not only did the water just sit in my tub but black gelatinous gunk came out of the drain. Called Green Gobbler customer service to see if they had any suggestions because I didn't think it was working. The woman who answered the phone said that the black gunk coming out of the drain meant that GG was doing it's job and breaking through the clog. She recommended I run hot water in my tub for 5 minutes even if it meant the tub would fill up some because the water will eventually go down the drain and help GG clear the gunk. She also recommended doing another treatment and if GG didn't work a third time, she said unfortunately, I might have to call a plumber. I did what she suggested and ran hot water for 5 minutes and sure enough the tub filled with water. Checked back 8 hours later and the water had drained. Treatment #3: Poured 16 ounces GG down the drain. Waited 24 hours and then poured 5 gallons boiling water down the drain which immediately accumulated in the tub. Decided to ALSO run the hot water for 5 minutes even though it accumulated in the tub because of what the customer service person said about GG needing water to push the gunk out. Checked back 4.5 hours later and my tub was empty. Ran hot water in the tub and to my surprise, it went straight down the drain - the clog was completely cleared! I couldn't believe it! Green Gobbler actually worked! Even though it took 3 tries with GG it was SO worth it because I saved hundreds of dollars on a plumbing bill. Glad I got the gallon size because now I'll have some at the ready for the next time the tub starts slowly draining!

If you're dealing with a seriously clogged drain—especially one caused by hair, grease, or organic buildup—and want something safe, bleach-free, and straightforward to use, the Green Gobbler Industrial Strength gel is a solid option. It generally delivers impressive results and is friendly on both your plumbing and your nose. However, manage your expectations—it’s not a guaranteed fix in every scenario, and some users may not notice results even after multiple uses. If cost is a concern, it might be worth considering smaller, budget-friendly options or pairing it with preventative maintenance.

I have a chronic clogging of my shower drain and find that i have to pour a directed amount every third shower to maintainn adequate drain, i have no idea what the reason is but i notice sometimes i get shipped the regular green goblin instead of industrial strength dwhich does not work as effectively, but still works better that most leading bra nds, if id make one suggestion id ask for a pour spout with small holes drilled in for seperation of kuquib when being poured, because with a big bottle, the initial pour tends to spill around opening of drain before going down, thus not distributing the product effectively, still a very reliable product that will be used in my shower for years to come!

Works fast and does not have any noxious smells! I have long hair so I have to clear some of that out first as we all should anyway but this does fantastic on any hair I can’t get and any build up in my shower drain.

I am proud of how this drain cleaner works, green gobbler is better than any other commercial brands! I won't waste a drop of it, I'm not sure if it is safe for hands! Good job!

I always have these on hand. And when I visit my son or nephew, I usually bring them one as well. I had a plumber tell me years ago when I got my first house that liquid plumr and the like will trash your pipes and release toxic gases back up into your home. He suggested this and I’ve never used any other brand since. It’s incredible. There was a renter situation once that brought me to tears. I don’t know what these people were putting down the toilet but I thought we were gonna have to burn it down. I poured a whole gallon in and left and the next day it was a little better. It ultimately took three gallons but we got the main cleared and then we could take the toilet out and demo the bathroom😑the point is: if you use this as soon as your drains start slowing, you will never have clogged drains.

Warning: Be extremely careful when storing these containers. The company dispenses Green gobbler industrial strength grease in green plastic containers that are made of thin-walled/weak strength materials. I did not subject these containers to any abuse but picked one up and it was punctured - holes in bottom. I quickly ran across my room to a kitchen sink and burned the flesh on my left hand holding my hand under the leaking container. This company needs to sell this fine working de-clogger in stronger thicker walled containers able to be store for a few months as we would like to have a couple of extra containers around to use when needed. Great de-clogger, lousy quality containers - worst I've seen esp. for caustic materials dangerous to come into contact with. Now that I've experienced this problem, I'd be worried to buy and carry home this container.

It took 3 overnight applications to clear my bathtub drain. I saw slight improvement after the second application. The third time was the charm. The drain runs free and clear.
