Septic tanks and drainage in Limpopo
Limpopo is hot, dry in most months and very spread out, so many homes, schools and clinics rely on pit toilets, septic tanks or conservancy tanks instead of a sewer. In Polokwane, newer estates and older suburbs mix sewer connections with tanks. Around Tzaneen and Haenertsburg, wetter ground and steep slopes need careful soakaway placement. Game farms and lodges near Hoedspruit and the Waterberg run treatment plants and french drains that peak in the tourist season, and mines near Mokopane, Steelpoort and Lephalale need bulk pump-outs. Operators and tank suppliers are concentrated in Polokwane, with a few in Tzaneen, so distance is the main cost driver.

Typical plastic septic tanks requests in the area come from:
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: larger tanks in series for chalets, with anchoring where the ground is damp
- Farms and game farms: tanks for worker housing and farmstalls, often delivered a long way from town
- Schools, churches and clinics: tanks for a rural school or clinic where installation must be quick
- Smallholdings and plots: a light tank that one truck can deliver to a remote building site
- Houses: a 2,500 to 5,000 litre buried tank for a new or renovated off-sewer house
- Factories, mines, sites and events: tanks for site offices and ablutions on construction sites and small works
- Restaurants, shops and offices: small tanks behind a shop, restaurant or filling station, with a grease trap upstream
