Why Regular Grease Pumping Is Important
Regular grease trap pumping is essential for any commercial kitchen, restaurant, cafeteria, food truck, hotel, or food service business. Over time, fats, oils, and grease build up inside the grease trap or interceptor, reducing its ability to separate grease from wastewater. If the trap is not cleaned on a routine schedule, grease can enter your plumbing, sewer lines, or septic system, causing clogged drains, foul odors, backups, costly repairs, and possible service interruptions.
In South Carolina, grease trap maintenance is also an important part of staying compliant. For food service facilities served by onsite wastewater or septic systems, South Carolina DES requires grease traps to be properly sized, accessible, and cleaned frequently to help prevent grease from reaching the drain field. South Carolina Regulation 61-56 also places responsibility on the owner or manager to have grease traps cleaned by a licensed septage pumper at frequent intervals. Local sewer utilities may also have grease control requirements, inspections, and maintenance log rules; for example, Charleston Water requires food service establishments to maintain grease traps and keep maintenance records, with pumping at least four times per year or as determined by an inspector.

Prevent clogged drains, sewer backups, and kitchen shutdowns
Reduce foul odors and unsanitary grease buildup
