- Maintain the grease trap/interceptor on a regular basis. The devices must be inspected to ensure proper functionality during each pump-out event. Good operating grease traps/interceptors minimize grease discharges to the sewer collection system. This minimizes grease-related blockages in the service lines and grease-related Sanitary Sewer Overflows.
- Obtain references before hiring a grease waste hauler. Some grease waste haulers unlawfully pump recycling bins without compensation. Most grease waste haulers agree to purchase the waste oil and are compensated when the bin is pumped. Make sure your vendor is complying with ordinance regulations.
- Implement Kitchen Best Management Practices to reduce health hazards and overflows. Poorly maintained extraction devices cause health hazards and environmental concerns during overflows. Best practices reduce the amount of waste to dispose of and increase your revenue.
- Train staff about how they can help ensure Kitchen Best Management Practices are implemented to reduce fats, oils, and grease (FOG). People are more willing to support an effort if they understand its basis.
