Grand Natural's grease trap service keeps your kitchen compliant and your plumbing clear. Licensed technicians, reliable scheduling, and documentation after every visit.
A grease trap — also called a grease interceptor — is a plumbing device installed between kitchen drains and the municipal sewer system. Its job is to capture fats, oils, and greases (FOG) before they enter the sewer, where they would solidify, cause blockages, and create significant liability for your restaurant.
Grease traps only work when they're maintained. As grease and solids accumulate, the trap loses capacity and grease bypasses the device. Regular pumping restores capacity and keeps you in compliance with local FOG ordinances.
Most major cities have formal Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) control programs. Restaurants are required to maintain grease traps, document service, and submit to inspections. Non-compliance fines range from hundreds to thousands of dollars per violation.
When a grease trap fills beyond capacity, grease enters the municipal sewer. The restaurant responsible for the overflow can be held liable for cleanup costs — which can run into tens of thousands of dollars.
Grand Natural's grease trap service is thorough, documented, and built for restaurant operators who don't have time to think about their plumbing. Here's what happens at every service visit:
Every major city in the U.S. has a FOG (Fats, Oils, and Grease) control ordinance that applies to commercial kitchens. These programs typically require restaurants to maintain grease traps, pump them on a regular schedule (often quarterly at minimum), and submit service manifests to the local sewer authority.
Grand Natural provides all required documentation after every service. If your city requires manifest submission to a FOG program, we can provide the format required by your local authority.

Stay compliant with your local FOG ordinance. Grand Natural handles pumping, documentation, and scheduling.
