Septic tanks and drainage in Mahikeng
Mahikeng and Mmabatho are a government and administrative centre on a dry bushveld plain. Many suburbs are on the sewer, though capacity has been under strain, and large parts of the surrounding villages and farms are off it entirely. Septic tanks with soakaways serve homesteads, schools and clinics, with conservancy tanks at government and commercial sites. The red sandy and calcrete soils drain well, but rock close to the surface in places makes excavation costly. Rainfall is low and falls in short summer storms. Honey sucker trucks serve the area from Mahikeng and Lichtenburg, with long runs along dirt roads to farms toward Zeerust and Ottoshoop.
Typical septic tank pumping requests in the area come from:
- Schools, churches and clinics: large tank pumping at schools and clinics during holidays, with a disposal slip
- Houses: a quick emergency pump-out when the tank overflows or drains back up after rain
- Farms and game farms: pumping tanks at the homestead and workers' houses on one day to save on travel
- Smallholdings and plots: pumping a large tank at the end of a long driveway, with extra hose from the truck
- Restaurants, shops and offices: early morning or late evening pumping for restaurants, shops and filling stations
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: fast pump-outs between guest groups, wedding weekends and busy holiday periods
- Estates and complexes: timed pumping of several shared tanks in one visit, booked around residents and security
