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

The short answer

In Salem, 7% of buildings have twenty or more units. How often an interceptor must be pumped, and who may sign the manifest, are set locally - there is no national schedule.

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25024, five-year estimates. A margin of error is published alongside every estimate.

Salem is not a dense-building market: 7% of its stock carries twenty units or more. Interceptors here tend to be in-ground and outside rather than under-sink and indoors.

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.

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.

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.
