Septic tanks and drainage in Mpumalanga

Mpumalanga splits into Highveld and Lowveld, and both have many properties off the sewer. Around eMalahleni, Middelburg and Ermelo, farms and smallholdings use septic tanks and french drains, while mining and power sites need bulk pump-outs. In the Lowveld near Mbombela, White River and Hazyview, lodges, guesthouses and citrus and macadamia farms run package treatment plants and conservancy tanks that are busiest in school holidays. Steep escarpment plots drain quickly but risk polluting streams, and heavy summer thunderstorms can flood soakaways. Honey sucker operators mostly work from Mbombela, eMalahleni and Middelburg, so remote lodges and farms may pay extra for travel time.
