Septic tanks and drainage in Polokwane

Polokwane is the economic hub of Limpopo, with the sewer covering the central suburbs and the newer townships but not the expanding edge. Smallholdings around Bendor, Westenburg and Flora Park, farms on the Haenertsburg and Mokopane roads, and villages such as Moletjie depend on septic tanks and soakaways. Granite koppies and weathered gravel soils drain well in parts, yet shallow rock raises excavation costs. The climate is hot with summer storms, and drought years bring water restrictions that affect flushing and tank loads. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers work from the Industrial Area and Seshego, and lodges on the outskirts run treatment plants.
