Your ORG technician will review and update the paperwork on all of your interior traps and recommend the appropriate service frequency based on the condition of those traps. Your ORG technician will update the service log appropriately to provide health department inspectors with the proper documentation.

Outside Grease Tank Services
Our ORG technicians will empty your outside grease tanks and legally dispose of the waste. At every service, our technicians will check the inlet and outlet pipes, measure the grease thickness, suggest service frequency, possible need for Drain Master, and will document this information for you on our work order.
Proper frequency of service is a must. Outside grease tanks are usually quite large and if not serviced properly, the tanks can have grease build up that becomes hardened. This can cause back-ups or overflows outside the building and draining issues on the inside as well. As always, our service technician will speak to the manager on site if possible to discuss the system condition and any other potential problems
