What Our Grease Trap Cleaning Service Includes
Every grease trap cleaning service from I SUK UP Ltd includes:
- Full vacuum extraction of all liquid and solid waste from the trap
- Thorough scrubbing and cleaning of trap walls, baffles, and inlet/outlet pipes
- Inspection of trap condition including lids, seals, and internal components
- Safe, licensed disposal of all waste at an approved treatment facility
- Service record documentation for your compliance records
- Technician advice on cleaning frequency and any concerns identified during service
We service under-sink manual grease units and in-ground grease trap tanks of all sizes.
Why Grease Trap Cleaning is Not Optional
Grease traps capture fats, oils, and grease from your kitchen wastewater before they enter the public drainage system. Over time, accumulated grease builds up rapidly - causing blockages, foul odours, and serious health hazards in your kitchen and dining areas.
Auckland Council requires commercial food preparation facilities to have their grease traps cleaned every 3 months, though high-volume kitchens may need service more frequently. Failing to maintain your grease trap risks council compliance notices, expensive emergency call-outs, and potential closure of your business during peak trading periods.
At I SUK UP Ltd, our technicians thoroughly vacuum and clean the entire trap - removing all accumulated grease, fats, oils, and solid waste. We do not offer a partial clean or a quick pump-out shortcut. Every service is complete, documented, and fully compliant with Auckland Council regulations.

Neglected grease traps cause blockages, foul odours, and wastewater backups in your kitchen. Beyond the operational disruption, you risk council compliance notices, fines, and potential forced closure of your premises. The cost of regular cleaning is far less than the cost of an emergency call-out or a council enforcement action.
Most standard commercial grease trap cleans are completed within 1 to 2 hours, depending on trap size and condition. We work efficiently to minimise disruption to your business operations.
We service commercial properties across North Shore, West Auckland, and Rodney - from Auckland Harbour Bridge north to Matakana, and from Bethells Beach east to Warkworth. Properties at the outer boundaries of our service area may incur a travel surcharge. We do not service properties south of the Harbour Bridge.
