Grease Trap Cleaning Tampa

Grease Trap Compliance Check

Grease Trap Cleaning Tampa wrote this grease trap compliance check around what Tampa Bay inspectors actually look at. Ten questions, about two minutes, and you get a risk level with the next steps that fit it.

1. Do you know which city or county grease rule applies at your address?
2. When was your trap or interceptor last cleaned or pumped by a hauler?
3. Any backups, slow floor drains or overflows in the last month?
4. Is there a sewer or rotten-egg smell near the trap or drains?
5. Do you keep a maintenance logbook and every signed hauler manifest?
6. Does your hauler pump to empty and give a manifest showing volume removed and the disposal ticket number?
7. Do you add enzymes, bacteria or degreasers to the trap?
8. Have you had a grease inspection notice or violation in the last 12 months?
9. Are the baffles, lids and outlet tee in good condition?
10. Is your next pump-out booked before your rule's limit?

Answer all 10 questions to see your result. Nothing you enter is sent anywhere.

What the check covers

The questions follow the checks in what grease inspectors look for: knowing your rule, how recently the unit was pumped, backups and odors, your logbook and manifests, whether pump-outs are complete, additives, open notices, and the condition of baffles, lids and tees.

It's a self-check, not an inspection. For a written report, book a grease trap inspection.
