What actually happens on the day.
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.
Nobody knows where the lid is. That is fine
Half the jobs start with a probe and a shovel. If the lid has been buried since the eighties, we will still find it.
Emptied properly, not skimmed
A tank is not done when the liquid is gone. The crust and the settled sludge come out too, which is the part that decides how long before you need us again.
You hear it straight
If something down there is on its way out, you are told at the tank, in plain words, with no invoice attached to the sentence.
The paperwork follows the load
Tipped at a licensed facility, recorded, and available to you if a council or a buyer ever asks where it went.
The lid goes back properly
Seated, weighted, and safe to walk over. That last part matters more than anything else on this list.
