Nitschke Liquid Waste

Nitschke Liquid Waste is a South Australian, family-owned liquid waste contractor based in Para Hills West with over 25 years of experience. They pump out and clean septic tanks, aerobic systems, grease traps, and handle trade waste cartage, oily water, and winery wastewater. The company is EPA licensed, fully insured, meets SA Water requirements, and holds WPCG accreditation for service stations and fuel depots.

The cost depends on the size and location of the septic tank, with charges starting from $290 to pump out and desludge. The business does not charge GST on septic pump outs and encourages customers to book online or over the phone for the best option.

They service a wide range of locations including Saint Kilda, Waterloo Corner, Buckland Park, Penfield Meadows, Oakbank, and the Adelaide Hills. The list extends to regional areas like Strathalbyn, Mount Barker, Murray Bridge, and Gawler River, covering metropolitan and surrounding rural zones.

They service grease arrestors for restaurants, food production, hospitality, and kitchen facilities. Their services include cleaning grease trap filters, exchanging or replacing them, and maintaining grease munchers and DAF units for various commercial and industrial clients.

Nitschke Liquid Waste follows a no-dig policy, meaning the customer must find, dig up, and expose the septic lid prior to the pump-out. The team will not dig for the lid themselves but will guide customers on how to locate it using their online form.

Generally, systems need to be pumped out and desludged every two to three years to operate at maximum efficiency. However, they can also be pumped out when blocked, when the soakage area is flooded, or when recommended by a service technician based on water usage and waste volume.

The business operates Monday through Thursday from 09:00 to 16:00, and Friday from 09:00 to 15:00. Saturday and Sunday are closed, and they do not operate on weekends.

With over 25 years of experience, Nitschke Liquid Waste has built a reputation for reliability and integrity in the liquid waste industry. The company describes itself as Adelaide's trusted experts for over two decades, serving both residential and commercial needs.

Aerobic septic systems must be maintained by a qualified service technician and pumped out and desludged every 2-3 years as per the manufacturer's service manual. Nitschke Liquid Waste can perform these pump-outs but notes that they do not maintain the aerobic components themselves.

Customers are directed to use an online form provided by the business to determine their septic tank location. The form helps users understand how to locate and expose the lid before the pump-out team arrives.
