Local Liquid is a small, family run company located in Port Lincoln South Australia, run by Andrew and Carmen Foster.

The aim of the company is to provide a good service at a reasonable cost, with good equipment and help local business to comply with their trade waste obligations with as little fuss as possible.

Septics are a major part of living in a rural area and most need to be pumped at around 4-6 years depending on the size and load.  

For more information please see the Septic Tank menu.

Local Liquid can service your trade waste (grease trap) tank at your company, cafe or restaurant and we are also able to organise the removal of oily/bilge water now.  All the trade waste is stored here in Port Lincoln at our storage facility and when our tank is full the waste is trucked to Peats in Whyalla.  Peats mix the trade waste with other things and turn it into mulch, which is then sold to customers for their gardens. We are charged for the waste by Peats which means it is a cost we have to on charge to our customers.  With no grease arrestor here in Port Lincoln and nothing on the horizon, this is our only option for the time being.  We are trying our best to be competitive with our prices.

Andrew had been working in this industry, doing most of the septics on Lower Eyre Peninsula for 5 years when an opportunity came up to buy his own vacuum truck.  Having seen what was happening in the local area he knew that there was room for a small local operator that could be a lot more flexible with the way he worked.  You need to be able to talk to a local person who is going to do the job.

We currently have a twin steer Mack with a 16,000 litres vacuum tank, a Twin steer Mercedes with an 11,000 litres tank, an Isuzu with a 6,000 litres vacuum tank, suitable for hydro-vac and trade waste, a water cart with 1000 litres water and high-pressure washer and fire pump.

We also have highly trained AWTS (Aerated Wastewater Treatment Systems) technicians which can service your tank within the service timeframes that are required by each different system and by the City of Port Lincoln and Lower Eyre Councils.

Local Liquid are currently employing 8 staff, all local people, with Andrew & Carmen & their daughter Giaan all working in the business.

We hope you enjoyed reading about us and our septic wastewater methods and our Local Liquid family.
