Emergency Tanker Services

Immediate Relief for Floods and Overflows

When water or sewage is backing up and has nowhere to go, you don’t have time to wait. You need an immediate solution to stop the damage and clear the mess.

That is where ASL’s emergency tankers come in.

In simple terms: When your drains, tank, or garden are overflowing, our tanker acts like a giant, powerful vacuum cleaner. We turn up, suck the liquid out, and take it away safely.

When Do You Need an Emergency Tanker?

You usually know when you need a tanker because the situation is urgent. Customers call us when:

  • The tank is full: Your septic tank, cesspit, or treatment plant is overflowing into the garden.
  • The pump has stopped: Your pump station has failed, and the chamber is filling up fast.
  • Sewage is backing up: You have waste coming back up through your toilets or manholes.
  • Heavy rain has hit: A storm has flooded your drainage field or soakaway, and the water won’t drain away.
  • Alarms are ringing: Your system’s high-level alarm is going off.

If you are seeing standing water or sewage where it shouldn’t be, a tanker is sometimes the only way to get the situation under control quickly.

How We Help

We provide a rapid response to stop the problem getting worse.

1. Rapid Removal – Our priority is to lower the water level. Our vacuum tankers can quickly remove thousands of litres of:

  • Raw sewage.
  • Floodwater and sludge.
  • Contaminated wastewater.

This stops the flooding, protects your property, and removes the immediate health risk.

2. Unblocking and Flow Restoration – Once the excess water is gone, we can actually see what is going on. We don’t just drive away; we check to see if a blockage caused the overflow. If we can, we will use high-pressure jetting to clear the pipes and get things flowing again.

3. Diagnosing the Cause – Emergency emptyings are a temporary fix. To stop it happening again, we need to know why it happened. Was it a broken pump? A blocked soakaway? Or just too much rain? We investigate the root cause so we can recommend a permanent repair.
