Grease trap cleaning & pumping in Long Beach, MS
Long Beach sits between Gulfport and Pass Christian along the beachfront. Whether you run a neighborhood restaurant or a school or campus kitchen, we can connect you with local grease trap providers.
Smaller kitchens and school calendars
Long Beach is home to many independent restaurants and to school and campus kitchens, including the University of Southern Mississippi's Gulf Park campus. Kitchens like these often have a single trap and no dedicated facilities staff, which is exactly when a pump-out gets forgotten.
- Put it on a schedule. If nobody "owns" the grease trap, a recurring maintenance contract means it gets serviced without anyone having to remember the 90-day mark.
- Plan around breaks. School and campus kitchens can schedule service right before a long break, so grease and food solids are not left sitting in the trap while the kitchen is closed, and again before it reopens if needed.
- New owners. If you bought an existing restaurant, ask for the previous owner's service records and confirm the HCUA permit is in your business's name.
- Odors are a clue. A grease smell in the dining room or near floor drains usually means the trap is overdue.
Grease trap rules in Long Beach: Harrison County Utility Authority (HCUA)
Long Beach is one of the cities served by the Harrison County Utility Authority (HCUA), which runs the grease trap permit program for its member jurisdictions. HCUA's Grease Trap Waste Disposal Regulations say:
- A permit is required. Each grease generator (any non-domestic commercial food preparation, including restaurants, schools, hospitals, and nursing homes) applies to HCUA for a grease trap permit and pays an annual permit fee.
- Clean as often as needed. Traps must be cleaned or pumped at whatever interval keeps what leaves the trap within sewer use rules.
- The 90-day mark. A generator that has not cleaned its trap during any 90-day period, and has not been granted an exception, can be ordered to have its trap inspected and tested. If a violation is found, the generator pays for the inspection, testing, and cleaning, plus fines and penalties.
- Permitted haulers and manifests. Grease trap waste may only be removed by an HCUA-permitted hauler showing HCUA decals and using the HCUA Grease Trap Waste Manifest, which you (or your agent) sign before the load leaves.
HCUA's permit application checklist also reminds generators to have traps cleaned at least every 90 days to stay in compliance. Read the full breakdown in our HCUA grease trap requirements guide.
