How often should you clean a grease trap in Tallahassee?

There isn’t one magic number. Many commercial programs land between 30 and 90 days, but fryer-heavy Tallahassee restaurants may need tighter cycles while lighter cafés stretch further. Local utility FOG rules and your interceptor size matter more than a generic blog calendar.

Signals you’re overdue

• Slow prep or floor drains during rush
• Grease odors near the trap
• FOG layer near the top of the tank at inspection
• Past backups that cleared temporarily
