Cesspool/Septic tank Emptying Service - Options

 

With the discontinuation of a cesspool emptying service by Shepway District Council at the end of June 2005 the Parish Council has contacted all companies known to offer a similar service in this area. Details are listed below. Prospective users should ascertain prices for themselves, as they vary depending upon circumstances, size and whether Cesspool or Septic is to be emptied.

MAINS DRAINAGE

 

The only property on Mains Drainage within Stelling Minnis is the primary school, which is connected to the Bossingham mains drainage scheme.

 

All other properties have either septic tanks or cesspools.  A few properties, eg those on Minnis Green & Minnis Field, have a communal cesspool scheme.

 

The 2007 Village Appraisal includes questions on the arrangements for emptying septic tanks/cesspools and if there would be any interest in mains drainage.
