Gully bowser service and septic tank cleaning get mixed up often — here's what each actually covers.
What a gully bowser does
A gully bowser is the vacuum tanker vehicle used to remove waste water, sludge and blockages from gully pits, drains and tanks. The bowser itself is the equipment — it's used across several different jobs.
What septic tank cleaning covers
Septic tank cleaning specifically refers to pumping out and cleaning a household or commercial septic system, which treats sewage rather than just surface waste water.
Which one do you need?
If you're unsure whether your property has a gully pit, a septic tank, or both, describe the issue when you call and we'll recommend the right service and bowser size for the job.
