Approved FOG Transporters
Generators of regulated waste are responsible for the waste from the time it is created until disposal is completed. Therefore, it is essential for generators to use qualified contractors to pump out waste properly, clean grease traps completely so they function properly, and transport the waste safely to the ultimate disposal facility. Athens-Clarke County maintains the following list of approved transporters. These contractors maintain the appropriate transporter registration with the State of Georgia and maintain general liability and automobile liability coverage, providing some assurance that resources are available for the financial consequences of potential accidents.
