Grease Trap Cleaning

Grease trap cleaning is essential for preventing blockages, odours and overflows in food-handling establishments. Grease traps capture fats, oils and grease (FOG) before they enter the sewer system, and must be emptied and cleaned at regular intervals to comply with water authority requirements. 

Common sites requiring grease trap services include: 

  • restaurants, cafés and takeaways 
  • hotels and function venues 
  • food manufacturers and processors 
  • aged care and hospital kitchens 
  • bakeries and commercial catering facilities 

Failure to clean grease traps on time can lead to pipe blockages, sewer overflows, odours and fines from local authorities. Our trained operators remove all contents, clean internal surfaces and transport waste to licensed disposal facilities. 

Industrial Washwater Collection

Industrial washwaters are generated from cleaning processes, equipment washing, workshop floors, wash bays and industrial manufacturing. These waste streams often contain contaminants such as oils, sediments, chemicals and detergents, requiring licensed handling and disposal. 

Industries that frequently generate washwaters include: 

  • automotive workshops and detailing centres 
  • manufacturing and fabrication sites 
  • transport depots and logistics yards 
  • food processing and production facilities 
  • heavy machinery and equipment yards 

Safe management prevents pollutants from entering stormwater systems or the environment. Premier Waste collects industrial washwaters using vacuum loading vehicles and disposes of them at approved treatment facilities.

Oily Rag & Absorbent Waste Disposal

Oily rags, absorbent pads, filters and workshop wipes are classified as regulated waste due to the presence of hydrocarbons and solvents. Improper disposal can create fire hazards, contamination risks and compliance issues. 

These waste streams are commonly generated in: 

  • automotive repair and spray-painting workshops 
  • manufacturing and mechanical facilities 
  • fuel and lubrication depots 
  • engineering and fabrication sites 
  • mining and heavy equipment operations 

Premier Waste provides safe collection of oily rags and absorbents in compliant containers and ensures all waste is transported to licensed treatment facilities.
