Grease Trap Cleaning in Bradenton, FL
Every commercial kitchen from downtown Bradenton to the Lakewood Ranch restaurant corridors runs on a grease trap or interceptor — and every one of them is a compliance item, not just a maintenance item. Manatee County's sewer use rules prohibit discharging fats, oils and grease that obstruct the collection system, and a neglected trap is how kitchens end up on the wrong side of that.
Our commercial service
- Full pump-outs of indoor traps and outdoor in-ground interceptors
- Scheduled service intervals matched to your kitchen's volume — set-and-forget
- Line jetting when FOG has migrated past the trap
- Service documentation for your records, ready for any inspection
The 25% rule of thumb
When accumulated grease and solids reach about a quarter of the trap's liquid depth, efficiency collapses and carry-through begins. If nobody can say when yours was last pumped, it's past due — and the smell in the dish pit usually agrees.
Frequently asked questions
How often do restaurant traps need pumping?
High-volume kitchens often need monthly or quarterly service; lighter operations may stretch longer. Volume of fryer and dish work, not calendar preference, should set the interval.
Do you service both small under-sink traps and large interceptors?
Yes — from compact indoor units to thousand-gallon exterior interceptors.
