Conservancy Tanks in Centurion
Conservancy tanks in Centurion are most often chosen where the ground is too wet or too rocky for drainage, or where a sewer has not yet reached the area. Tell suppliers the stand size, the water use and how far the nearest truck access is, so those serving Centurion and the rest of Gauteng can recommend a tank size.

Septic tanks and drainage in Centurion
Centurion is mostly sewered, but older holdings and fringe areas such as Irene farms, Raslouw and parts of Zwartkop still run septic tanks. Many estates and complexes use shared conservancy tanks or small treatment plants that need scheduled pump-outs and checks. A large part of the municipality sits on dolomite, so a leaking tank or blocked drain is taken seriously, and sinkhole risk means water should never be left to pond near a tank. Operators serve the area from Lyttelton, Hennopspark and Sunderland Ridge, and Olifantsfontein is close by. Booking a regular service ahead of the summer rain season avoids overflow call-outs.
Typical conservancy tanks requests in the area come from:
- Estates and complexes: large linked tanks for a complex awaiting a sewer, with a pump-out schedule
- Smallholdings and plots: a holding tank where rock or a high water table rules out a soakaway
- Houses: a sealed tank for a house on a small stand where a drainage field will not fit
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a holding tank for a shop or filling station with an upstream grease trap
- Schools, churches and clinics: sealed tanks for a school or clinic, sized for the term-time load
- Factories, mines, sites and events: bulk holding tanks for sites and works that must not discharge on the ground
