About Interceptor Cleaning Cost

What is on this site

One question, "interceptor cleaning", answered with a quote form that works on the page with no account, 4 guides on the questions around it, a data table you can cite (the figures and their method), and the sources every figure rests on.

• How often should an interceptor be emptied?: There is no statutory emptying interval for interceptors. Annual servicing with regular checks is the commonly recommended practice; condition sets the real frequency.
• Interceptor cleaning regulations: what's law and what's guidance: Interceptor waste is hazardous waste: licensed carrier and consignment note required by law. GPP 3 servicing is guidance. What site managers must keep on file.
• Forecourt interceptor cleaning: costs and what a good visit covers: Forecourt interceptor cleaning typically costs £300–£800 per visit (typical 2026 quotes). What a good visit covers and why forecourts service more often.
• Grease interceptor cleaning: a different tank, a different service: Grease interceptors (kitchen grease traps) are not oil separators: different waste, different service. How the two differ and what grease trap cleaning involves.
