Pump it out...lol we do it ourselves.
In my family's restaurant, when we empty the deep fryer, or cook a bunch of greasy meat (sausage, bacon etc...) all of that grease/oil goes into a barrel in the back of the restaurant. We pay a grease disposal to come and dispose of, I heard they make it into soap. They seal the full barrel and take it with them while leaving us an empty(s)
We also have a grease trap in the sewer lines (only from the kitchen sinks, dishwasher and slop sinks; it doesnt handle sewage from toilets). These need to be opened and the floating grease present gets ladled into a big pot. That grease gets also dumped into the disposal barrels out back.
The grease in the trap is putrid and almost rotting. The smell is so terrible because it sits in there with no refrigeration until cleanup time and IMO, rotting grease smells worse and is more insidious than even rotting meat . Anytime the trap is open for cleaning, I'm fighting vomit. We have 2 dishwashers who also do cleanup chores. They resort to drawing straws to decide who has to empty this trap. The pit is deep and to get to the very bottom, you gotta put your face practically in it so your hand can get down to the bottom of it.
