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.

Grease Trap Cleaning coverage in Melrose Park, IL

Melrose Park is in Cook County, Illinois. It covers 3 ZIP codes: 60160, 60161, 60164. We route grease trap cleaning calls from every one of them.

What goes wrong

A missing or broken inlet tee is the common one: without it the incoming flow stirs the whole tank and grease leaves with the effluent. A full-looking trap is not the same as a working one.

The dishwasher problem

Hot water and detergent emulsify grease so it passes straight through and sets further down the line. It is why dishwasher waste is excluded from some interceptors by code.
