Why Grease Trap Maintenance Matters
Without proper maintenance, grease traps can accumulate excessive grease, sludge, and solids that restrict flow and increase the risk of:

Grease Traps FAQs
Grease trap cleaning typically costs $150–$400 for small indoor traps and $300–$700+ for larger outdoor units, depending on size, access, and grease buildup. High-volume or heavily neglected systems may cost more due to additional labor and disposal fees.
Grease traps should typically be cleaned every 1 to 3 months, with every 90 days being the most common standard for restaurants. High-use kitchens may require more frequent cleaning to prevent buildup, odors, and backups.
A grease trap is a plumbing device that captures fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from wastewater before it enters the sewer system, helping prevent clogs and backups. It works by slowing the flow of water so grease rises to the top and solids settle, allowing cleaner water to exit the system.
