Septic tanks and drainage in Brits

Brits is an irrigation and industrial town below the Magaliesberg, with the sewer serving the central suburbs and not much beyond them. The agricultural holdings around Hartbeespoort, Schoemansville, Damonsville and the Crocodile River valley rely on septic tanks and french drains, and the weekend and holiday houses by the dam add seasonal loads. Black clay and alluvial soil near the river and the dam are poorly draining and the water table is high, which is hard on soakaways. Factory sites and farm worker housing use conservancy tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Brits and Hartbeespoort, and the Gauteng side supplies tanks and plant.

  • Estates and complexes: fixed weekly collections for shared sealed tanks, with gate access booked in advance
