Welfare Unit Emptying

Prompt and efficient service

Cater for all requirements

25+ years in the industry

We have a large fleet of purpose-built, vacuum tankers and over two decades of experience providing welfare unit emptying for building sites across the Midlands. Facilities vary from site to site, so whether you need us to empty tanks used for your toilet facilities, canteen cabin or welfare unit, we will remove the contents of your tank safely, efficiently and ethically. We are also available for next-day welfare unit emptying, with all waste disposed of at an authorised disposal site. This can be done on a weekly or ‘when needed’ basis.

Our experienced team can be completely flexible in our approach, so whether you require us daily, weekly, biweekly or monthly, we can create a scheduled welfare unit emptying service. We know how important it is for building sites facilities to be serviced regularly. The number of contractors working on a site varies day-to-day, so as your project progresses, we can adapt our service to meet your changing needs.

Welfare Unit

Flexible, fast and efficient welfare waste emptying

At Thistle Tanks, we’ve developed longstanding relationships with local building firms, providing fully flexible welfare unit emptying, as well as one-off collections. To ensure you keep on top of your welfare waste, we recommend a regular yet flexible agreement, to minimise any downtime or disruption on site.

Welfare units can either be connected to an effluent tank or have tanks built within the unit. Without regular emptying, it’s difficult to minimise blockages, overflows or leaks. Emptying is also an essential aspect of maintaining clean and well-serviced facilities, and with Thistle Tanks, your waste will always be emptied and disposed in line with UK regulations. Whether you prefer us to arrive once per week during the morning or after hours when most of your contractors have left the site, we can arrange collections at a time that’s best for you.
