Septic tanks and drainage in Rustenburg
Rustenburg is platinum country, and rapid mining growth has left large areas off the sewer or served by overloaded networks. Suburbs like Safari Gardens and Cashan are connected, but smallholdings along the Magaliesberg foothills, farms around Kroondal and Mooinooi, and peri-urban settlements near Phokeng and Boitekong depend on septic tanks, pit conversions and conservancy tanks. Mine contractors and construction camps need bulk tanks and portable toilets. Heavy black turf clay swells in the wet season and cracks in the dry, which breaks drains and tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Rustenburg and Kroondal, and lodges on the Magaliesberg run treatment plants.
Typical grease trap cleaning requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a trap on a farm stall, deli or catering kitchen run from a smallholding
- Factories, mines, sites and events: large traps at food factories and staff canteens with a waste slip for each visit
- Houses: a small under-sink trap at a home business kitchen or a granny flat with a full kitchen
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: heavy-use traps at lodge and venue kitchens that peak during weddings and holiday seasons
- Farms and game farms: traps at farm kitchens, worker canteens and packing sheds that cook for many people
- Schools, churches and clinics: scheduled cleaning of school, hospital and church hall kitchen traps, often in the holidays
- Restaurants, shops and offices: frequent cleaning of restaurant, takeaway and food court traps to meet by-laws and landlords
- Estates and complexes: traps at a clubhouse restaurant or communal kitchen, serviced on a body corporate schedule
