Grease Trap Cleaning — Restaurants, Pubs, Kitchens
Grease traps and interceptors stop fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from entering the public sewer. They need regular emptying and cleaning to stay effective and to keep you compliant with Building Regulations and your lease. We service in-kitchen traps and external interceptors, usually before service or after close.

FAQs — Grease Trap Cleaning
How often should a grease trap be cleaned?
Most kitchens need their trap emptied every 4 to 12 weeks, depending on cover, menu, and trap size. Pubs and takeaways with deep-fat fryers need shorter intervals. We'll set you a sensible schedule and stick to it.
Do you work out of hours?
Yes — most grease trap work happens before service or after close. We have early-morning and late-evening slots specifically for kitchens.
What about compliance paperwork?
Every visit comes with a waste transfer note. We can email a 12-month log of services if your EHO or insurer asks for it.
How quickly can you get to me?
Most non-emergency jobs across our coverage area are scheduled within the same week. Emergency callouts (overflowing tank, blocked drain, sewage backing up) are usually same-day — WhatsApp us and we'll route the nearest tanker to you.
Do you charge a callout fee?
No. The price we quote on the phone or WhatsApp is the price you pay, all in. We don't add hidden callout, fuel, or disposal charges after the job.
