What we pump

What they get called out for.

Everything Bass Highway Waste handles, in the order people ring about it.

septic

septic desludging

The standard household pump-out. We lift the lid, vacuum the tank down, check the outlet and leave the lid seated properly.

skip

skip bin hire

Skip bins dropped, swapped and taken away, on the same run as the truck.

waste removal — quoted before we start, and finished the same day where we can.

What happens on the day

How the day goes.

You get a person, not a queue

Ring and someone who drives the truck answers. You get a price and a day on that call, not a callback.

Finding it is part of the job

Under the lawn, under a garden bed, under a slab someone poured over it. We locate the lid and uncover it before anything else.

The tank goes out, not the lawn

Hose run from the truck, tank vacuumed down, sludge and crust taken with it. Boards down if the ground is soft.

Nothing gets quietly noted

Whatever the tank shows us, you hear about while we are still there and can look at it with us.

Disposed of under licence

It leaves your place and goes to a licensed receiving facility. The paperwork exists and you can have a copy.

We leave it safe

An unseated septic lid is the most dangerous thing on a rural block. Ours go back properly, every time.

Straight answers

The questions we get asked most.

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

For most households it is every three to five years, and it depends on tank size and how many people live there. If it has been longer than five years, or you have just moved in and nobody can tell you when it was last done, book it.

How do I know if mine needs doing?

Slow drains through the whole house, gurgling, a smell near the tank, or wet ground and greener grass over the trench. Any of those means ring, do not wait.

Do you need to find the lid, or do I?

We can find it. If you know where it is, tell us and we are faster. If nobody has looked in twenty years, that is a normal job for us.

Can the truck get to my tank?

Usually. Tell us if the tank is behind a locked gate, down a steep drive, or more than about thirty metres from where a truck can park, and we will bring the right hose.

What happens to the waste?

It goes to a licensed facility and it is documented. Ask for the docket any time you want it.

How much does it cost?

It depends on tank size, access and how long it has been. Ring (03) 5678 8994 with your address and you get a real number, not a range.
