What we pump

The work they do.

What a pump-out involves, and what else the truck is set up for.

Septic

Septic tank pump-outs

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

Liquid

Liquid waste removal

Bulk liquid waste taken away under licence and tipped at a licensed facility, with the paperwork to prove where it went.

What happens on the day

What actually happens on the day.

A phone call, and it is booked

One conversation. You hear what it costs, you hear when we can be there, and that is the booking done.

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.

Hose to the tank, truck stays put

The hose does the walking so the truck does not have to. Sludge, crust and liquid all go, not just the easy layer off the top.

You get told what we saw

Cracked baffle, roots in the inlet, a lid on its last legs. You hear it while we are standing over it, not in a letter.

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.

We leave it safe

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

Where we go

The country we cover.

Based in Brisbane, QLD, covering Brisbane. If your town is not on this list, ring anyway — the run may already go past you.

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 us with your address and you get a real number, not a range.

Book it in

Book it while it is still a job, not an emergency.
