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.

We find the lid before we start

If you have never had it pumped, we locate and uncover the tank. Old lids under a garden bed are our normal Tuesday.

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.

It is tipped where it should be

Waste goes to a licensed facility. If you ever need the docket, we have it.

The council report is handled

Treatment systems come with paperwork obligations. We do the service and the report together, so nothing is chased later.

The lid goes back properly

Seated, weighted, and safe to walk over. That last part matters more than anything else on this list.

Not the same as the next truck

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.
Do you do the council service report as well?
Yes. Aerated systems have to be serviced on a set interval and reported. We do the service and fill in the report at the tank, so you are not chasing paperwork later.
How much does it cost?
It depends on tank size, access and how long it has been. Ring 0402 995 001 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.

Ring 0402 995 001 and speak to someone, or leave your details and get a call back.

We read every one of these. If it is urgent, ring instead — it is faster.
