A full grease trap is a health code violation waiting to happen. Grand Natural's licensed technicians pump and service restaurant grease traps across 49 states — on your schedule, with full documentation.
Grease traps work by capturing fats, oils, and greases before they enter the municipal sewer system. When a trap fills up, grease bypasses the interceptor and flows into the sewer — causing blockages, sewer backups, and health code violations. The fine for a grease overflow can reach thousands of dollars per incident.
Most health codes require grease traps to be pumped when solids and grease reach 25% of total trap volume — commonly called the "25% rule." Grand Natural tracks your service history and schedules pumps before you hit that threshold.
Most municipal codes require grease trap pumping when the combined depth of grease and settled solids reaches 25% of the trap's total liquid depth. Exceeding this threshold is a violation. Grand Natural schedules service to keep you well below that limit.
A single grease trap overflow can result in a forced closure by the health department until the issue is remediated. Regular pumping costs a fraction of one day's lost revenue.
Grand Natural technicians arrive at your scheduled time with a vacuum truck rated for the job. Here's what the service includes:
Service frequency depends on trap size, kitchen volume, and local ordinances. A small café with a 30-gallon trap may need quarterly service. A high-volume fast food location with a 1,000-gallon interceptor may need monthly pumping. Grand Natural assesses your setup and recommends the right interval — then tracks it for you automatically.
