Mr Wasp 220 Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 No Errr yes. Only a licensed waste disposal company can empty septic tanks or sewage treatment plants. A simple google search will put you right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bell 3,609 Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 My old house the soak away got blocked. Had to empty it every six months as the water was backing up to the house. Paid a farmer a £100 a pop to empty. This house have a klargester but still get it emptied once a year, £100 is feck all to save me the ear ache I got from the mrs when the downstairs toilet was filling up !
