Sludge Removal

Sludge Removal

Those who are not connected to a municipal sewage network have some form of sludge separator (read more about different plants) which must be emptied at regular intervals for the drainage system to function. Our owner municipalities have chosen to hand over the responsibility for emptying private septic tanks to ReMidt.

ReMidt has the exclusive right to collect and treat sludge from sludge separators, clogged tanks, mini treatment plants etc.

  • Ordinary emptying, extra emptying (emergency emptying) and flushing are now managed and invoiced from ReMidt IKS.
  • The fee for sludge will come on the same invoice as the ordinary refuse fee, not from the municipality.
  • If you have questions regarding sludge, the inquiry must go to ReMidt IKS.

Please contact the municipality for:
  • change in the emission permit, e.g. when replacing or upgrading the tank / plant
  • apply for exemption from sludge emptying
  • change of emptying frequency, e.g. change from holiday home to permanent residence

The municipality is still a pollution authority and this cannot be delegated. Therefore, they must decide on these questions.

Frequently Asked Questions:

I have changed the sludge plant on my property, who should I notify?

It is important that you report this to your municipality so that they can change / update your discharge permit. The municipality will then notify ReMidt so that we can set up the correct emptying frequency for your system.

Can I change how often my plant is emptied?

Yes, you can, but then you have to contact your municipality to change your emission agreement.

I want to clear the sludge system out of the ordinary route.

Then you need to contact our customer center to order an extra emptying (up to 14 days) or an emergency emptying (within 24 hours). Read more about this on our website, Sludge Removal

Here you will also find a form that you can fill out, but it applies emergency evacuation must please call our customer service center.

I want to apply for exemption from sludge, what do I do?

To apply for sludge clearance, you must contact your municipality. This depends on your discharge permit, and the municipality must consider this as they still have pollution control authority.

What is a sludge separator?

Those who are not connected to a municipal sewage network have some form of sludge separator (also called septic tank). This must be emptied at regular intervals for the drainage system to function.

What are the timber routines for wastewater treatment plants?

There are many different types of treatment plants. They have different emptying procedures. Instructions should be available at the facility.

Why is my septic tank still full right after you empty?

A sludge tank is just as full when we finish the job as when we arrived. There is a so-called "local dewatering". That is, we take the solid with us and return the "water" to the tank.

Empty tank is completely emptied.

 

Calculation of the amount for sludge emptying is not correct, why is the sum as high as the entire annual fee when the invoice is for the quarter?

Under the heading «Annual leave. per unit »is the unit price per m3. If your tank is 4m3, the unit price is multiplied by 4, then divided by the number of quarters in the sum.
Example: ($ 227,25 * 4m3 = $ 909. $ 909/4 quarter = $ 227,5).
The same applies to sludge invoices for leisure subscribers, but there the unit price is multiplied by the number of m3 and then divided by two, since we invoice leisure only twice a year.
