Trap or interceptor?
Grease traps versus grease interceptors
Small indoor or under-sink grease traps often serve individual fixtures or compact kitchen areas. Larger outdoor grease interceptors may serve higher-volume commercial kitchens and can require different pumping equipment, access, and planning.
A provider may need details about trap size, location, grease accumulation, service history, access, and prior maintenance before confirming available cleaning or pumping service.
Maintenance frequency varies
Schedules can depend on kitchen volume, type of cooking, trap size, local requirements, accumulation rate, and prior maintenance. The commonly used 25 percent rule is a general industry guideline, not a legal requirement stated here for every Sheridan business.
Grease-trap overflow requests
A grease-trap overflow may need prompt attention
An overflow can interrupt kitchen operations, create odors, cause sanitation concerns, and spread wastewater. Do not enter or open a large interceptor unless you are qualified and equipped to do so.

FAQ
Grease trap cleaning and pumping questions
How often should a restaurant grease trap be pumped?
Schedules vary by kitchen volume, menu, trap size, accumulation rate, prior maintenance, and any local requirements that apply to the business. Many operators use the 25 percent rule as a general industry guideline: when fats, oils, grease, and settled solids reach about one quarter of the trap's liquid depth, service may be needed. It is not presented here as a Sheridan legal rule for every business.
What is the difference between a grease trap and a grease interceptor?
A grease trap is often a smaller indoor or under-sink unit serving specific fixtures. A grease interceptor is usually larger and may be outside or below grade. Equipment, access, pumping time, and provider requirements can differ.
What are signs a grease trap is full?
Possible signs include persistent odors, recurring backups, visible grease around the trap area, staff reports of foul smells, or a long gap since the last cleaning or pumping service.
What does grease trap cleaning include?
Cleaning commonly involves removing accumulated fats, oils, grease, food solids, and wastewater from the trap, then cleaning accessible trap components as appropriate. The exact work depends on the unit and provider.
What information should I have before calling?
Helpful details include the business name, address or service area, business type, trap or interceptor size if known, last service date, symptoms, access notes, parking or gate details, and preferred timing.
Can I request urgent grease-trap service?
Yes, you can call to request urgent grease trap cleaning or pumping help. Availability may vary based on location, provider schedules, equipment needs, weather, and the condition of the trap or interceptor.
How much does grease-trap pumping cost?
Pricing varies by trap or interceptor size, accessibility, grease and solids volume, pumping frequency, travel, disposal requirements, and after-hours requests. Independent providers determine their own pricing.
Does every restaurant use the same maintenance schedule?
No. A small cafe, a high-volume restaurant, a school kitchen, and a hotel kitchen may have very different usage patterns and service needs.
Do you directly perform the pumping?
Sheridan Grease Trap Help is a service-request and call-intake resource. We help collect service details and seek connection with independent providers when available. Independent providers determine pricing, availability, qualifications, and services they can perform.
Can service be requested outside Sheridan?
Requests may be made for Sheridan County communities such as Big Horn, Ranchester, Dayton, Story, and nearby areas where provider availability permits. Coverage is not guaranteed in every location.
