SEWERAGE SUCTION TRUCK SERVICES: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Clients making use of George Municipality’s Sewerage Suction Truck Services are kindly requested to take note of the following:

  • The operation and maintenance of on-site septic and conservancy tanks, including all associated costs, are the responsibility of the property owner.
  • The property owner is also responsible for ensuring safe access to the tanks, including any construction or maintenance required for a safe access road.
  • Tank levels must be checked regularly by the owner, and services should be booked well in advance to prevent spillages or overflows.
  • Please book your tank collection or cleaning service at least five working days in advance using the contact numbers listed below.
  • Emergency overflows: Immediate response cannot be guaranteed and is subject to truck availability and scheduling. Emergency call-outs will be charged at the emergency tariff based on the tanker size required. Services will only be dispatched once the client has confirmed acceptance of the emergency fee and tanker size.
  • After-hours services (weekdays from 16:30 to 22:00) and weekends/public holidays (08:00 to 19:00) are available at a higher cost, as per municipal tariffs. These services will only be provided once the client confirms acceptance of the applicable after-hours fee.
