Septic tanks and drainage in Pretoria
Pretoria spreads over a lot of ground the sewer network never reached. Smallholdings around Mooikloof, Zwavelpoort, the east and the north towards Roodeplaat rely on septic tanks and soakaways, while older homes in Tshwane suburbs may still have conservancy tanks. The east has expansive clay that holds water around a soakaway, and the Magaliesberg foothills are shallow and rocky. Parts of the south sit on dolomite, where leaking tanks can cause problems below the surface. Honey sucker operators and drain contractors work from Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West and reach most plots the same day, though long hose runs on big holdings may add time.

Typical portable toilet hire requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: extra toilets for a wedding, market day or build on a smallholding
- Houses: a unit or two for a renovation or a garden party at an off-sewer house
- Estates and complexes: units for contractors working inside the estate during building or repairs
- 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
- 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
