A smell that comes back

- Grease lifted, not pushed to the drain

What it costs

The size
The pad and the enclosure.
How often
Monthly or quarterly visits cost less each time.

Required on some sites.
The details
For the people who want every step
Hot water does the work
Grease on concrete does not care about pressure. It cares about heat, a degreaser and dwell time. A cold machine moves it around and pushes it toward the drain.
Odor is bacterial
Cleaning removes the source; a deodorizing treatment afterwards handles what has soaked in. Without it the smell returns in a week and everybody assumes the clean failed.
On a schedule, because it comes back
These two surfaces re-soil predictably. Monthly or quarterly beats an emergency visit when somebody has complained.

What people ask us about this
How often should a dumpster pad be cleaned?
Monthly for restaurants, quarterly for most other sites.
Do you clean the dumpsters themselves?
The pad and enclosure, yes. The bins belong to the hauler.
Will it stop the smell?
For weeks, not forever. That’s why most sites set a schedule.
