Description

Overview

This 1500l honey sucker trailer pairs a horizontal tank with a 6.5 HP petrol engine and a 3 inch trash pump on a braked trailer. It empties septic tanks, conservancy tanks and site toilets at up to about 50,000 L/h, and carries half as much again as our 1000 L trailers.

Full, it weighs close to two tonnes, so tow it with a capable bakkie or light truck. For 2000 L in one tank, see the 2000 L horizontal honey sucker trailer. For two IBCs on two braked axles, see the 2000 L twin IBC honey sucker trailer.

Key features

  • Braked trailer chassis
  • 3 inch centrifugal trash pump moving about 50,000 L/h at around 2.5 bar
  • 6.5 HP petrol engine
  • 1500 L horizontal tank with low centre of gravity
  • Bakkie stays free for crew, tools and PPE
  • Primes with a little water, then lifts sludge with no vacuum system to maintain

Where it works

A 1500l honey sucker trailer fits municipal sanitation contracts in Limpopo, the Eastern Cape and KZN where crews empty dozens of VIP toilets a day across scattered villages. Private contractors in the Western Cape winelands also use it for farm worker housing and tasting rooms on septic systems.

Browse all sizes in our honey suckers range. Wear gloves, boots and eye protection on every job, and hose down with disinfectant before you drive off.

What’s in the box

  • 1500 L horizontal tank on braked trailer
  • 6.5 HP petrol engine with 3 inch trash pump
  • Suction hose with filter and layflat outlet hose (lengths on request)

Questions about this product

What do I need to tow it?

Full, the trailer weighs roughly 1,916 kg, since effluent is about a kilogram per litre. Check that your bakkie or tractor is rated to tow that with a braked trailer, and that your licence covers the combination. Ask us for the axle rating before you load it fully. Register and license the trailer before it goes on a public road.

How does it suck without a vacuum pump?

A 3 inch trash pump does the work. Once its casing is primed with water, the impeller creates enough suction to lift waste through the hose, and it is built to pass sludge and small solids that would choke an ordinary water pump. Reverse the hoses at the disposal point to empty the tank.

Can I start a septic tank pumping business with this?

Many small operators do. Before you take paying jobs, register with your local municipality, confirm where you may discharge and what it costs, and keep protective gear and disinfectant on the vehicle. Price per load, and remember travel to the disposal site often takes longer than the pumping.

How much is delivery to Stellenbosch?

Nothing. At R53,666.55 VAT incl. this unit is over our R20,000 free-delivery mark on its own, so we bring it to Stellenbosch at no charge. It ships at 416 kg on a Kamano truck from Polokwane and normally arrives in 1 to 3 days. Tell us about any tricky access road when you order.
