What we pump

Everything the tank might need.

Everything Southern Septics handles, in the order people ring about it.

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.

02

Decommissionin

Decommissioning

Decommissioning handled on the same visit, so it is not another trip and another bill.

03

Residential

Residential and commercial wastewater system installation

Onsite wastewater systems pumped, serviced and checked over, whatever brand is in the ground.

04

Servicing

Servicing and repairs

Scheduled servicing that keeps the system inside what the manufacturer and the council both expect.

05

Septic

Septic inspections

Septic inspections, on a day that suits you and with the site left as we found it.

What happens on the day

What actually happens on the day.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 Southern.

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 much does it cost?
It depends on tank size, access and how long it has been. Ring (03) 5631 4011 with your address and you get a real number, not a range.
