Grease Trap Cleaning in San Leandro

Our San Leandro Grease Trap Cleaning Process

1.  Arrival & Setup– We arrive at your scheduled time, locate the trap (usually under or near a sink), and prepare the area so the work is contained and safe.
2. Inspection & Level Check– Before pumping, we look at grease and solids levels and note whether the trap appears to be staying within your required service interval. If anything looks out of the ordinary, we’ll flag it for you.
3. Full Pump-Out – We remove all contents from the trap using our vacuum equipment. Most of the time this is done directly from the truck with a hose; when the trap is not reachable that way, we use a portable vacuum unit to access tight locations.
4.  Interior Rinse (When Accessible) – For small indoor traps where water access is available, we rinse the interior surfaces to help remove residual grease and loosen remaining solids. This helps the trap reset more cleanly between services.
5. Component & Condition Check – We take a look at the inlet and outlet areas, sanitary tees (if visible), baffles, and lid seating. If we see signs that something isn’t functioning correctly or that the trap may need hydrojetting upstream, we’ll let you know.
6. Lid Re-Installation & Area Tidy – The lid is carefully put back in place and secured so it seals as designed. We leave the immediate work area tidy so your team can resume normal use.
7.  Follow-Up Summary – After service, you receive a brief summary of what we found and any recommendations for scheduling or additional work. This way, you’re never guessing about what’s going on inside the trap.
