What we pump

The jobs the truck gets called out for.

Everything Liquid Waste Pumpouts handles, in the order people ring about it.

01

Septic

Septic tank cleaning

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

02

Grease

Grease trap service

Kitchen grease traps emptied and washed out on a schedule that keeps the council and your kitchen happy.

03

Cooking

Cooking oil collection

Waste oil collected and taken for recycling, with the paperwork behind it.

04

Oil

Oil water separators

Oil water separators — quoted before we start, and finished the same day where we can.

05

Liquid

Liquid food waste

Liquid food waste — booked in, done properly, and left tidy.

What happens on the day

No mystery, no mess.

You ring, we give you a day

No answering service, no ticket. You get a person, a price and a day that suits the truck and suits you.

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.

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.

Disposed of under licence

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

Lid seated, ground left tidy

Back down square, safe to stand on, and the grass no worse than we found it.

Not the same as the next truck

What you actually get with Liquid.

Taken from what the business says about itself, not from a template.

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 often does a grease trap need doing?
Most kitchens run somewhere between monthly and quarterly, and your council sets the minimum. We will tell you honestly if you are paying for visits you do not need.
How much does it cost?
It depends on tank size, access and how long it has been. Ring 0432 296 308 with your address and you get a real number, not a range.
