Thank you for such an informative video. I was cleaning a much smaller grease trap and this certainly helped.

[@jonnynelson5734]

Good GRIEF. But THANK YOU for this educational video. It's not a pleasant ordeal.

[@TSnowy23]

Thnx Gar, extremely helpful 👍

Lol! Wish I had the respiratory mask

[@bobsus4508]

Question that I hope I get a response for: Why did you use the colander to separate solid waste but then dump solid waste from the bottom of the trap into the very bucket you attempted to keep it from? I'm probably going to do exactly this, anyhow... I just want to know why I'm doing it because it seems like you made your effort obsolete.

OMG I am so grateful that I don’t have to use this primitive method for servicing the grease traps that I am responsible for! I built a device that allows me to vacuum everything into a recycling tank. It just takes a few minutes, and all I have to clean is the hose. This video is well done, but this is not best practice - and it just might be worst practice!

I have to do this shit and it’s horrible and

+Jum Salazar Hi, Glad to help. Additional methods and tools etc can be utilised to improve methods but hope this sort of covers the gist of things.

Where can I purchase a similar sieve please ??

[@Edgecrusher66]

how do you eliminate the odours from grease trap and whats the best way to clean out the filter when there's still bits of food waste in it that is hard to get rid of.

[@alanwarner7057]

If that's what's in mine. I can understand why it stinks.

[@thomasbroking7943]

That trap was already pretty clean..all the ones i saw had.hard choppable grease in them..and it was monthly..

[@gabycross1342]

Hello Chris Lovell 💁🏼‍♀️

[@Artair2009]

why not use a vacuum to get the grease into a container instead of painfully scooping it out for hours end.

[@trevorloughlin1492]

The remains can be made into "soup of the day."

[@hachalkeum0820]

How often does a standalone grease trap like that needs to be cleaned?

[@OnerousEthic]

Jeremy Ho it depends how much crud goes into it! No crud = no cleaning

[@bpdispatch6433]

We clean most on a monthly basis. We do 400+ traps a month.

don't throw the baby out with the grease water.

Why don't you use a. Bucket buddy

[@69garethowen]

+Jamie Pentz Hi, There are several methods of carrying out cleans on these components. Appreciate any further input. Wet Vacuums are also a expense worth their weight in gold.

[@bpdispatch6433]

We charge about $200-350 PER service to do one of these traps... I cannot imagine how horrendous this must be to the average person who would have to do this for the first time lol

[@yanickmoregola1894]

How long does it take you to clean it?

[@af2001]

Good grief. We charge only 100 to 150. We use a provac or truck and can be done in around 10 minutes

[@mcfrancoable]

Bad advise!!

[@69garethowen]

+Mnyseptics Hi, Could I ask why you think this is bad advise? how would you change how this has been done? I appreciate any input. I do agree that there are many methods and a wide range of tools and equipment that can be utilised to carry out this task.
