Free to homeowners in Missouri — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

How often it has to be done

Our grease trap cleaning coverage in Missouri runs to 380 ZIP codes in 209 cities. Where covered places are small and many, the interval is set by the local sewer authority, and the practical constraint is often how far a pump truck has to travel rather than what the rule says.

We route grease trap cleaning calls in 380 ZIP codes across 209 Missouri cities, in 34 counties.

What this site is

InterceptorCall is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect operators and property managers with independent contractors. Contractors and waste haulers are required to hold whatever credential and permit their state or municipality demands — ask to see them, because the manifest they leave you is a compliance record. We carry out no work, we haul nothing, we do not set prices, and we never charge the caller anything. Nothing here states the grease limit, the pumping interval or the device size that applies to any particular kitchen; those are set by your control authority and by your installation.

Checking a credential in Missouri

Missouri has no state plumbing board. Section 341.010 of the Revised Statutes requires a certificate for plumbers working in cities or towns of fifteen thousand or more inhabitants, and the chapter elsewhere recognizes licenses issued by any county or city operating under plumbing rules, so the office that issued one is a local office. Start here. Ask the contractor which municipality licenses them and confirm it with that office before work begins.

What that coverage looks like

Food premises concentrate where the population does, and in Missouri that is Jackson County with 98 covered ZIP codes, Kansas City holding 71 of them. A pump truck working a dense block services several kitchens in a run; one working the far side of 34 counties does not, and the interval has to be set with that in mind.

How a grease trap cleaning job goes

An interceptor is pumped on a schedule and the schedule is written down. The trap is opened, the accumulated grease and solids are removed, the baffles are checked and the service is recorded. The record is the part that matters when an inspector asks: a trap that is clean today and has no history of being cleaned is still a finding.

What the call asks about grease trap cleaning

  • How many covers the kitchen does and what it cooks, because that sets the interval more than the tank size does.
  • Where the interceptor is and whether a truck can reach it.
  • When it was last pumped, and whether there is a record of it.

Every Missouri city we route in

33 cities, ordered by the share of buildings with twenty or more units. Commercial kitchens cluster where the buildings are large, and every one of them has an interceptor. Each page carries that city’s own numbers and the ZIP codes we route there.

Before you call

An interceptor that is pumped on a schedule is a cost; one that is pumped after a backup is a closure. The pages above set out the record a kitchen has to keep.
