Vienna VA Grease Trap Pump Out

Are you tired of pumping out the grease trap in your restaurant yourself?  You’re not alone.  It’s a messy, awful job, and most restaurant owners would rather outsource it than deal with the headaches.

Unfortunately though, your grease trap is essential to your restaurant’s survival.  You don’t want to leave its maintenance to chance.  The good news is, you don’t have to!  We are Vienna VA’s premier restaurant grease trap pump out company.  We’re a locally owned company that’s been in the business since 1977, and in that time, there’s not much our guys haven’t seen, so no matter what the condition of your trap is, we’ve got you covered.

When you call us to schedule your Vienna VA grease trap pump out, here’s what you can expect from us:

  • We’ll pump the grease trap out completely, removing all grease, sludge, and other materials that may be caught in it.
  • Once the tank is empty, we’ll perform a thorough inspection of the tank itself, and all baffles to make sure there are no problems.
  • After the trap integrity has been verified, we’ll turn the system back on and test it to ensure that all water and waste materials are flowing into it properly.
  • And finally, we’ll properly dispose of the material we pumped out.

In other words, we provide an end to end service that gives you one less thing to worry about.  That’s a big win for you, and tremendous peace of mind.

Ideally, you’ll want to have your trap pumped out and thoroughly cleaned every 4-6 weeks.  Any less frequently than that, and you run the risk of having the system back up on you, which creates an enormous mess and a genuine health hazard that will force you to shut your doors until the problem is resolved.  That’s money out of your pocket.  Never a good thing.

The 4-6 week Vienna VA grease trap pump out schedule works, but only if your employees understand what does, and does not need to go into the trap.  If they don’t know, then you’re going to need to have the trap pumped out more frequently than that, which will cost you money and cause no end of headaches.  Here are a few things to be sure your people are aware of, where your grease trap is concerned:

  • No hot water in the trap. Boiling water, either poured in directly, or arriving via an attached dishwasher, will dissolve the grease and allowing it to escape the trap, defeating its purpose and function.
  • Don’t hook up a garbage disposal unit to the trap
  • And most importantly, don’t pour chemicals or additives (including bleach and chemical drain cleaners) into the trap. Doing this will not only kill beneficial bacteria living in the system, but also could create an environmental hazard.

If you handle the employee education, we’ll take care of the dirty, messy part for you.  Give us a call today!
