Grease trap waste is generated by commercial business such as fast food chains, bakeries, shopping centres, butchers and restaurants.

These businesses must comply with the requirements set out by S.A water guidelines. Click here to view SA Water Guidelines.

Frequency of cleaning or ‘pump outs’ depends on the size of the grease trap and the amount of waste (grease and food scraps) that enter the grease trap. As a guideline pump outs should occur every 13 weeks.  The consequences of not maintaining your grease trap are not only bad odours but greasy waste may enter the sewer system causing blockages or possible over flow onto your property.
