What Is Holding Tank Pumping (Events / Temporary)?

A scheduled service that vacuum-removes sewage/graywater from temporary or permanent holding tanks at events, job trailers, kitchen pop-ups, and remote facilities.

We connect with proper fittings, pump to our vacuum unit, rinse/recharge when requested, and haul to an approved treatment facility—providing chain-of-custody manifests and receipts.

Why Choose White Glove Plumbing

  • Compliance & safety first: Trained crews, PPE, no illicit discharges, and transport to approved facilities only.


  • Defensible documentation: Manifests, gallons removed, site IDs, and disposal receipts—organized for managers and AHJs.


  • Beyond a pump-out: Rinse/recharge (when specified), gasket/cap checks, odor control, and simple hose-routing fixes.


  • One accountable team: We can also service grease tanks, clear lines, sanitize spill areas, and camera on-site drain tie-ins.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should we pump during an event?

Depends on attendance and tank size. We’ll forecast based on day-one drawdown and set route windows (e.g., AM/PM).


Can you pump during quiet hours?

We offer low-noise windows and can stage early/late to avoid performances or ceremonies.


What hose length can you run?

We carry long-reach options; share distance/obstacles and we’ll plan accordingly.


Do you service graywater-only tanks?

Yes—sewage and graywater. We log content type on the manifest.


Can you also service our grease tank?

Absolutely—add grease trap/interceptor pumping to the same visit for efficiency.


What if there’s a spill?

We deploy spill response, extraction, disinfection, and document the cleanup—then adjust schedule to prevent recurrence.
