Septic tanks and drainage in North West
North West has many properties off the sewer, from Rustenburg's fast growing suburbs and informal settlements to farms around Lichtenburg and Vryburg. Around Hartbeespoort and Brits, homes and lodges on rocky Magaliesberg slopes and the dam edge use septic tanks, conservancy tanks and small treatment plants, and shallow rock makes soakaways hard to dig. Maize and cattle farms use septic tanks and french drains at the homestead and worker housing. Mines and construction camps around the platinum belt need bulk pump-outs and portable toilets. Clay patches hold water after summer storms. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers work mainly from Rustenburg, Brits, Klerksdorp and Potchefstroom.
Typical septic tank pumping requests in the area come from:
- 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
- Houses: a quick emergency pump-out when the tank overflows or drains back up after rain
- Factories, mines, sites and events: bulk pumping on factory and building sites, with manifests for the waste record
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: fast pump-outs between guest groups, wedding weekends and busy holiday periods
