Evergreen guide
FOG vs. grease trap cleaning
Separate interceptor maintenance, waste hauling, and on-site proof so operators do not confuse one obligation for another.
Guide section
What changes by local rule
- Cities and utilities can set different maintenance triggers, approved-hauler rules, and retention windows.
- The safest workflow starts with the local rule holder, not a vendor sales page.
Guide section
What should always stay on site
- Recent manifests or trip tickets.
- The current service cadence decision and the reason it was chosen.
- Any city- or utility-specific permit or approval paperwork.
