Grease Trap Cleaning
Professional Grease Trap Cleaning for Commercial Kitchens
A clogged or overflowing grease trap can bring a commercial kitchen to a halt — slow drains, foul odors, health-code violations, and unexpected shutdowns. FusionSite keeps traps of every size on a schedule to help avoid those occurrences.
Most kitchens need service more often than they think. EPA-published guidance for restaurants recommends pumping indoor grease units at least once a month and outdoor in-ground interceptors at least quarterly, and your local ordinance may be stricter. If you are past due, or you are not sure when yours was last pumped, get on a schedule before a backup shuts you down.

Before We Arrive
How to Prep for a Grease Trap Cleaning Appointment
A few minutes of prep shortens the visit and keeps your kitchen moving. Here is what helps most before your FusionSite technician arrives.
- Stop using the affected sinks and drains about an hour ahead. Standing hot water and fresh food waste make the trap harder to pump and slow the job down.
- Clear a path to the trap. Move mats, carts, and storage away from indoor units. For outdoor interceptors, keep the parking space and manhole cover clear of vehicles and dumpsters.
- Share the trap’s location and size if you know, and flag anything you notice. It is helpful if you know the exact location of the trap before our crew arrives, but our technicians can usually identify it upon arrival. A last service record or rough gallon capacity helps us match your trap to the right truck when we schedule.
- Stay open — just schedule between rushes. You won’t need to close the business, but scheduling between rushes keeps the odor away from your guests. Indoor traps require someone on-site to let our technician in; outdoor traps don’t. Compliance documentation comes with every cleaning, so your file stays current.
After the visit: you receive documentation of the pump-out and FOG disposal for your records. Keep it with your health inspection paperwork, since inspectors routinely ask for it.
