Toilets are blocked and you need your septic tank pumped today!

Sometimes our clients have moved from metro Adelaide to the beautiful South Coast and are not aware of how the septic tank system works.  One thing we all know is that when a septic tank overflows it can be a nightmare!

How much to empty my septic tank?

The average cost is between $240 – $300 for a septic tank and between $400 – $500 for an aerobic tank. This price will also vary due to:-

  • Your location
  • Size of your water treatment plant or septic tank that requires cleaning
  • Waste water treatment plants are usually more expensive. Expertise and experience is necessary as inexperienced operators can damage modern systems and cause very costly damage.
  • Urgency and time frame Eg: Late Sunday afternoon or evening

Emergency Septic Tank Pumpout

Over time, sludge will build up in the bottom of the tank. Even though bacteria does help control the amount of sludge in the bottom of the tank, this bacteria cannot break down sludge fast enough to completely eliminate sludge and keep the tank clean. When the tank is pumped, the sludge is removed and the tank is emptied.
