Liquid Waste Removal & Disposal
Liquid waste can build up in various drainage systems, leading to blockages, overflow, and health hazards. Our vacuum tankers efficiently remove and dispose of:
- Sewage & wastewater from domestic and commercial properties.
- Cesspit and septic tank waste, ensuring compliance with UK regulations.
- Industrial wastewater from manufacturing plants and treatment facilities.
- Non-hazardous liquid waste, including slurry and sludge.
Emergency Flood Water Removal
Flooding can cause extensive damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure. Our powerful vacuum tankers quickly extract standing water from:
- Residential properties – Protecting homes from water damage.
Commercial buildings & warehouses – Preventing loss of stock and business operations.
- Roads, car parks & basements – Clearing public and private spaces for safety.
- Construction sites – Removing excess water for continued site work.
Gully Cleaning & Grease Trap Emptying
Blocked gullies and grease traps can lead to bad odors, slow drainage, and potential fines for businesses. Our vacuum tankers provide:
- Grease trap emptying for restaurants, hotels, and food processing facilities.
- Gully and drain pit cleaning to prevent flooding and overflow.
- Interceptor and catch pit servicing to remove oil, sludge, and sediment.
Industrial & Commercial Drain Cleaning
For businesses and large-scale sites, preventative maintenance is crucial to avoid disruptions caused by drainage failures. We provide:
- High-pressure drain jetting alongside vacuum extraction for thorough cleaning.
- Interceptor and silt trap cleaning for petrol stations, car washes, and factories.
- Septic tank emptying & maintenance for caravan parks, campsites, and rural properties.
- Liquid waste removal from industrial sites to maintain compliance with waste management laws
Sludge, Silt & Waste Removal for Large Drainage Systems
Over time, sludge, silt, and solid waste can accumulate in drainage and wastewater systems, leading to restricted flow and increased risk of blockages. Our vacuum tankers efficiently remove:
- Silt and sludge from storm drains, gullies, and interceptors.
- Wastewater from treatment plants, factories, and processing facilities.
- Debris and residue from underground drainage systems.
