Grease Trap Pumping in Baton Rouge

What a proper pump-out includes

• Complete evacuation — grease cap, liquids, and the solids layer on the bottom. A “skim job” that takes the top layer and leaves the solids means you’re paying twice as often.
• Scrape-down of walls, baffles, and the crossover pipe.
• Inlet/outlet check so a partial blockage doesn’t become Friday-night backup.
• A dated service receipt for your inspection records.

Signs your trap is overdue

Slow floor drains near the dish pit. A sour, rancid smell that cleaning doesn’t fix. Gurgling from the three-compartment sink. Grease visibly at or past the baffle. Any of these usually means the trap is beyond the 25% line — the point where health and sewer-use rules say it must be pumped — and a trap past that line stops separating grease at all: everything flows through to your lateral line, where the expensive problems happen.

On a schedule, so you never think about it

Most Baton Rouge kitchens with an indoor trap need service every 2–6 weeks depending on size and menu. Run your numbers in the pumping frequency calculator, or just tell us your trap size and covers per day and we’ll set the interval. You’ll get a reminder before each service — no contract, cancel any time.
