Grease Trap Emptying
Regular grease trap emptying is essential for businesses within the food and drink industry. Restaurants, hotels, fast-food chains and other businesses with commercial or large kitchens are responsible for any pollution caused by their grease traps and drainage system.
Cooking on a large scale generates a lot of fats, oils and grease (FOG) waste and this sorts of waste can create issues within your own plumbing and clog sewer lines if not disposed of properly
Grease interceptors prevent grease, oils and food solids from passing into the drainage system and entering our waterways. That’s why regular grease trap maintenance needs to be a priority to stop grease and fat escaping into the sewerage system
Scotloo tankers services operate our specialist grease trap emptying service across Perthshire, Tayside, Angus, Fife, Aberdeenshire and the Lothians. With nearly 40 years of experience, we recognise the importance of providing an efficient and regular grease trap management service.
Grease trap cleaning is required when 25% of the grease trap contents has filled up with fats, oils, grease and solids. When it has reached this level, the trap will no longer work effectively leading to waste escaping from the fat trap.
The chances of blockages and your grease trap overflowing will also increase. this results in foul smells, mess and the risk of contamination of waste water systems, leading to blockage and backup.
We understand the importance for providing an effective and regular grease trap emptying service. Our experienced team will help you to implement a well-thought out plan to avoid emptying during peak times to minimise disruption to your business or kitchen.
If your grease trap is the correct size for your business and the amount of waste oils and grease you produce, it will need to be emptied out between every 1-3 month to avoid grease waste escaping. We can also provide high pressure water jetting to remove hard deposits and other debris that accumulate in grease traps over time.
With our bespoke fleet of vehicles, our highly skilled operatives and powerful vacuum tankers have the capability to work quickly and efficiently. Not only that, we also provide a 24 hour response service in the case of an emergency.
