Which waste code covers grease trap pump-out?
The lists treat grease trap waste separately from animal-processing effluent, food-processing liquids and industrial wastewater. Match the trap’s source and contents to the state’s entry. Keep the waste description with the code on the movement details.
Is every liquid organic waste grease trap waste?
No. Abattoir effluent, liquid food waste, septic pump-out and industrial wash water come from different sources. Pick the entry that fits the waste and check the exclusions for other controlled constituents.
Which exclusions or special routes apply to grease trap waste codes?
New South Wales. NSW’s published resource recovery provisions include an order and an exemption for treated grease trap waste.
The shared classification and movement limits for grease trap waste codes are on the Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory and Northern Territory pages.
What do you do next with grease trap waste codes?
For grease-trap waste, keep it apart from ordinary food waste and sewage. Then use the liquid-waste or approved treatment route for the state it came from.
