Septic tanks and drainage in Roodepoort

Roodepoort has an unusual mix: sewered suburbs such as Florida and Little Falls, and large fringe areas with septic tanks, including Ruimsig, Wilgeheuwel, Honeydew and the holdings toward Muldersdrift. Parts of the area sit on dolomite, so tank leaks and standing water are treated with care. Older mining ground and rocky outcrops make digging soakaways slow, and some owners switch to conservancy tanks with regular tanker collection. Honey sucker operators and drainage contractors work from Roodepoort industrial areas, Wilgeheuwel and Krugersdorp, so a pump-out is usually available the same day. Ask your operator where the load is disposed of.

  • 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
  • Lodges, guesthouses and venues: big tanks with a high-level alarm for chalets in sensitive areas, emptied on a regular round
