Septic tanks and drainage in Secunda
Secunda is a planned town built around the petrochemical plant, so most of its streets are on a modern municipal sewer. The septic work lies at the edges: smallholdings and farms toward Bethal, Kinross and Leandra, older sites around Evander, and contractor camps that spring up for plant shutdowns. Those sites use septic tanks, conservancy tanks and rented portable toilets with scheduled emptying. Highveld clay is slow to drain and the ground can stay damp after summer thunderstorms. Honey sucker operators work from Secunda and nearby Trichardt, and during major shutdowns tanker capacity tightens, so large sites do best to book early.

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