Question for oven cleaners

Question for oven cleaning companies.What do you do with your dirty waste water from dip tank after each job ?
As it is illegal to dispose waste water down street drains.I just wondered what system you have to get round this problem

You can't put it down storm water drains in the street but whats the problem with putting it down a foul water drain so long as your not causing problems with the fat? I' put it down the customers drain and tell them its extra if not because of the waste carriers licience

Be interesting to know what the big franchises like cookaburra and ovennu advise their franchisees on this matter.They surely would have researched this.

Pour it down drains which go directly to the sewers IE drains beneath kitchen waste pipes which carry washing up liquid etc or washing machine waste. I used to work in the water industry and if you get caught putting chemicals into storm drains its a big fine, your not even supposed to wash your car anywhere where the waste runs down the road.

I use fresh water every time
