Septic tanks and drainage in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and steel town where the sewer reaches most of the older suburbs, but not the surrounding district. Homes in Eastdene, Aerorand and Kanonkop are mainly connected, while smallholdings and farms along the Hendrina and Belfast roads depend on septic tanks, soakaways and the odd french drain. Winter is cold and dry and summer storms are heavy, so soakaways that cope in June can flood in January. Clay soils with a shallow rock layer in places limit absorption trenches. Honey sucker trucks work from town and from eMalahleni, and farmers often combine a pump-out with a drainage inspection on the same visit.
Typical JoJo septic tanks requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a 2,500 to 5,000 L ribbed tank for a house, fitted in a day or two
- Farms and game farms: tanks for the homestead and worker housing, light enough to move by bakkie
- Smallholdings and plots: a 5,000 to 6,000 L tank carried to a smallholding with rough access
- Factories, mines, sites and events: quick to fit tanks for site offices and camps
- Restaurants, shops and offices: ribbed tanks for small shops and offices where no sewer exists
- Estates and complexes: matching ribbed tanks for several units, delivered together
- Schools, churches and clinics: larger ribbed tanks for small schools and clinics on rural sites
