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 plastic septic tanks requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a light tank that one truck can deliver to a remote building site
- Factories, mines, sites and events: tanks for site offices and ablutions on construction sites and small works
- Houses: a 2,500 to 5,000 litre buried tank for a new or renovated off-sewer house
- 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
- Restaurants, shops and offices: small tanks behind a shop, restaurant or filling station, with a grease trap upstream
- Estates and complexes: a row of plastic tanks serving a few cottages or units on shared ground
