Septic tanks and drainage in East London
East London has a sewered core, but outlying areas such as Gonubie, parts of Beacon Bay, and the rural Buffalo City edges toward Kidds Beach and Cove Rock use septic and conservancy tanks. The Eastern Cape coast is humid with year-round rain, and heavy summer downpours saturate the clay soils inland and the sandy coastal belt alike. A high water table near the Nahoon and Buffalo rivers often rules out standard soakaways. Mdantsane and Qonce have their own sewer networks and pressures. Honey sucker operators serve the metro from East London itself, and tank suppliers keep stock for plastic and concrete tanks. Holiday lodges peak in December.

Typical portable toilet hire requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a unit or two for a renovation or a garden party at an off-sewer house
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: VIP units for weddings and conferences that exceed the lodge's own toilets
- Smallholdings and plots: extra toilets for a wedding, market day or build on a smallholding
- Restaurants, shops and offices: units for a shop fit-out, pop-up market or outdoor trade show
- Factories, mines, sites and events: serviced units for a construction camp, plant shutdown or mine site
- Farms and game farms: chemical units in the lands for seasonal workers, or VIP units for a farm wedding
- Schools, churches and clinics: temporary toilets for a school sports day or church conference
