Septic tanks and drainage in Vanderbijlpark

Vanderbijlpark's steelworks and industry sit beside suburbs such as Vaalpark and Rietkuil that are largely sewered, while plots and farms toward the Vaal River, Houtkop and Henley on Klip rely on septic tanks and conservancy tanks. Riverside lodges and holiday homes need regular pump-outs because the high water table near the river fills soakaways and can push effluent toward the water, which is a pollution concern. Flat low ground floods in wet seasons. Industrial sites need grease and bulk waste removal. Operators serve the area from local industrial areas and Vereeniging and usually arrive within a day or two. Ask whether the tank is sealed and watertight.

Typical conservancy tanks requests in the area come from:

• Factories, mines, sites and events: bulk holding tanks for sites and works that must not discharge on the ground
• Smallholdings and plots: a holding tank where rock or a high water table rules out a soakaway
• Lodges, guesthouses and venues: big tanks with a high-level alarm for chalets in sensitive areas, emptied on a regular round
• Houses: a sealed tank for a house on a small stand where a drainage field will not fit
• Farms and game farms: a sealed tank near a borehole or river where discharge is not allowed
• 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
