Does anyone know if someone has a septic tank, are there any ongoing
maintenance issues associated with them?

Or is it usually just a matter of having it cleaned out every so often
by a specialist company?

If so, on average how often would a septic tank be emptied; and how
much does this cost?

Any info is much appreciated...Thanks!!

50 quid a year emptying charge. One of the local farmers uses his
tractor, and takes it to the sewage works ......


Are you sure ?

It wouldn't be unknown for it to be sprayed across farmland


I just spread mine across my field - stops townies walking their dogs for a couple of day - or not
