Septic tanks and drainage in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal has a humid, wet climate, steep hills and a high water table near the coast, all of which strain septic systems. Outside Durban and Pietermaritzburg's sewered areas, rural homesteads, smallholdings in the Midlands and Hillcrest area, and lodges along the Drakensberg and the North and South Coasts use septic tanks, conservancy tanks and package plants. Coastal sand floods soakaways in heavy summer rain, so many properties use sealed conservancy tanks instead. Sugar cane and timber farms add worker housing tanks, and industrial sites around Durban and Richards Bay need bulk removal. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers work from greater Durban, Pietermaritzburg and Richards Bay.
Typical honey sucker trucks for sale requests in the area come from:
- Houses: rarely bought, though a small tanker may suit a homeowner starting a side business
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: a small truck for a group of lodges that want to manage waste themselves
- Smallholdings and plots: a small used tanker for a smallholder who also clears neighbours' tanks
- Estates and complexes: a dedicated tanker for an estate that empties its own conservancy tanks often
- Farms and game farms: a mid-size tanker for several farm sites, sometimes also moving water
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a tanker for a waste company adding a septic service to its fleet
- Factories, mines, sites and events: a large 12 to 18 kL tanker for a mine, plant or construction camp
- Schools, churches and clinics: a municipal depot truck for emptying school, clinic and community tanks
