Septic tanks and drainage in Eastern Cape
Large parts of the Eastern Cape sit off the sewer, from Wild Coast villages and rural homesteads around Mthatha to farms near Graaff-Reinet and holiday homes along the Sunshine Coast. Coastal sand and a high water table around Jeffreys Bay, Port Alfred and Kenton-on-Sea flood soakaways, so conservancy tanks and package plants are common. Inland Karoo farms use septic tanks and french drains that rarely get rain to wash them. Schools and clinics in rural areas need scheduled pump-outs, and factories around Kariega and Coega need bulk removal. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers are based mainly in Gqeberha and East London, so distant jobs cost more.

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
- Schools, churches and clinics: temporary toilets for a school sports day or church conference
- Farms and game farms: chemical units in the lands for seasonal workers, or VIP units for a farm wedding
- 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
- Factories, mines, sites and events: serviced units for a construction camp, plant shutdown or mine site
- Restaurants, shops and offices: units for a shop fit-out, pop-up market or outdoor trade show
