Grease Trap Maintenance in Staten Island
A managed grease trap program that keeps FOG below the 25% rule, prevents backups, and produces the manifests inspectors and jurisdictions ask for. Built for assisted-living, retail centers, and municipal lift stations across the borough.
Why Staten Island properties need this
Staten Island's mix of assisted-living campuses, retail corridors, and municipal lift stations means the odor problems here trend toward corridor and outdoor complaints rather than tower stacks. Wet wells and pump stations carry the load.

Grease Trap Maintenance in Staten Island — FAQ
How often should a grease trap be pumped?
The 25% rule is the working standard — pump when FOG + solids reach 25% of interceptor volume. Most commercial kitchens land on a 4–8 week cycle; high-volume operations run more often. We right-size the schedule to your actual interceptor and cover count, not a default.
What documentation do we get for the health department?
Every service produces a digital manifest with volume pumped, condition photos, and disposal chain-of-custody. Inspectors want to see the manifest history, and having it ready on request usually ends the conversation.
Can bio-dosing replace pump-outs?
No. Bio-dosing extends time between pump-outs by digesting FOG in-line, but interceptors still fill with solids and need physical removal. The two work together.
Do you service Staten Island on a regular schedule?
