If your septic tank, sewage treatment plant, cess pit or pump station collects and treats waste for a business, your waste is considered commercial. This waste must be collected and disposed of in accordance with UK law. Failure to do so can leave businesses liable for severe legal repercussions including substantial fines or prison sentences. That is why it is so important to work with a tried and trusted commercial waste collection specialist such as Universal Tankers.

Fats, oils, and greases (often referred to as FOG) are universal problem substances in wastewater. Most FOG is not soluble, which means it does not mix or dissolve in water. Due to this, FOG floats on water and clings to surface areas void of water. This non-hazardous specialist waste comes from processing effluents and is a common by-product of the food manufacturing, hospitality and food and beverage industries.
We offer regular emptying and disposal of these waste effluents in a safe, responsible and complete service to enable production lines, restaurants, hotels and businesses to perform at their highest level.
Working with well-known brands throughout the UK, we have positioned ourselves as an industry leader for the removal and disposal of non-hazardous liquid waste. Universal Tankers has worked with leaders to tackle the following types of waste:
