Quick answer: Most commercial kitchens should plan on pumping their grease trap every 1-3 months, and high-volume restaurants often need it monthly to stay compliant with local sewer discharge rules.
Lawrenceville Septic & Sewer Experts
Homes and businesses in Lawrenceville count on Atlanta Wastewater Solutions when it's time to pump a septic system right the first time.
A grease trap's job is keeping fats, oils, and grease out of the sanitary sewer. Skip the pump-out schedule and FOG builds up until it overflows into the sewer line — leading to backups, kitchen odor, or a violation notice from the local sewer authority. See our full grease trap pumping page for the complete process and pricing details.
Lawrenceville is the Gwinnett County seat, home to a historic downtown square surrounded by a dense mix of older and newer residential neighborhoods. Understanding Lawrenceville's soil and sewer situation up front means our pump crews rarely run into surprises once they're on site.
