Tanker Services FAQs
How quickly can a tanker be on site?
Once a tanker has picked up liquid waste, how is the waste disposed of?
Each type of waste is given a classification to ensure that it is disposed of correctly. Here at Metro Rod, we have environmentally friendly systems in place to ensure that all waste is disposed of safely.
What accreditations do the tanker engineers have?
All our engineers are highly trained to ensure that they can carry out any job you require as quickly and efficiently as possible. Aside from personal training, all our local offices are registered with the Environmental Agency as waste carriers to ensure the correct duty of care when we transfer waste.
How much do tanker services cost?
The precise cost of the tanker services we offer can vary depending on the job. How much a specific job costs will depend on what it is that needs doing. To discuss your requirement in more detail, you can give us a call on 0800 66 88 00.
How does a vacuum tanker work?
A vacuum tanker works by using a powerful pump to create a vacuum inside its sealed tank, which allows it to suck up waste liquids through a hose. This system is ideal for removing waste from septic tanks, drains, sewers, and industrial sites. Once the waste is collected, it’s securely transported to a treatment facility or disposal site. The process is efficient, hygienic, and designed to handle both hazardous and non-hazardous materials.
