Local Regulations

Miami Grease Trap Compliance

Florida DEP regulates grease trap maintenance statewide, and Miami-Dade County enforces some of the most robust FOG control programs in Florida. Grease traps must be pumped when FOG accumulation reaches 25% of total volume. Southwaste is fully Florida DEP-permitted to haul, process, and dispose of liquid waste, and we provide complete compliance documentation accepted by Florida DBPR inspectors and Miami-Dade County health officials. Our Master Plumber license covers repair, replacement, and new installation work.

Common Questions

Miami Grease Trap FAQ

Everything Miami kitchen operators need to know about grease trap service, compliance, and what to expect when working with Southwaste.

What Florida DEP regulations apply to grease traps in Miami?

L
K
Florida DEP requires all food service establishments to maintain grease traps and pump when FOG reaches 25% of trap volume. Miami-Dade County enforces additional FOG ordinances. Southwaste is fully DEP-permitted and provides documentation compliant with both DBPR and Miami-Dade County health inspections.

Can you service South Beach Art Deco hotel kitchens?

L
K
Absolutely. South Beach Art Deco buildings present unique challenges — historic preservation requirements, tight service access, and the need for zero guest disruption. We schedule South Beach routes overnight (midnight–6 AM) when streets are quiet and kitchens are winding down.

Do you service PortMiami cruise terminal kitchens?

L
K
Yes. PortMiami has massive food service operations. Our technicians are badged for port access and handle the narrow time windows of cruise turn days — servicing multiple ships between disembarkation and embarkation.

How do you handle Miami multilingual market?

L
K
Our Miami team is built for this market with English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole capability. We understand your kitchen staff may prefer any of these languages, and our dispatch and field teams accommodate all three.

Do you service Brickell and downtown Miami high-rise kitchens?

L
K
Yes. Brickell and downtown Miami have some of the densest high-rise concentrations in the Southeast. We navigate loading docks, freight elevators, and service corridors in buildings where kitchen access can be 30+ floors above street level.
