 Did you know that all our drivers will be EUSR trained in Water Hygiene?

Water Hygiene Card

What is EUSR?

The National Water Hygiene scheme has been developed at the request of Water UK who is the representative for the water supply companies across the whole of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The blue National Water Hygiene card was introduced in January 2006 to replace all water company specific hygiene schemes and removes the need for workers to undergo separate testing, health screening.

If any person working on a restricted operations sites such as service reservoirs, pumping stations, treatment works, wells, spring and boreholes and working on the network of water mains and service pipes must be in possession of a EUSR National Water Hygiene card.

This is why Tardis Environmental has trained all our drivers to be EUSR trained in Water Hygiene. What does it mean for you? This will mean we can deliver fresh water (Not drinking Water), which will be safe to use. We can deliver up to 6000 gallons of fresh water with our water tank. Need less I have other tanks like our H20 Bulk water tank that can hold up to 4000 Gallons of bulk water?

We also do water bowser and IBC’s. Our Water Bowser range from 2,400 litres up to 10,000 litres. Our IBC’S has the capacity to hold 1,000 litres. Both our Bowsers and IBC’s hold fresh water only and are not suitable for drinking from. Before all our bowsers and IBC’s are sent out they are cleaned and ready for use.

We can deliver drinking water from our special drinking water towable bowser.

Septic Tanks Beware there’s a new Tractor Unit About

Septic Tank Emptying

Tardis Environmental has just taken delivery of a new tractor unit. Our new Tractor unit is due to be Tardisifide with the company’s logo and paint scheme of yellow, green and red. When our tractor unit comes back from its Tardis makeover it will then go to our Mechanics bay to unsure the tractor unit is road worthy.

What will the new Tractor Unit do?

The new tractor unit will be able to deliver our H2O Bulk Water tanks ranging from 4000-6000 Gallons of fresh water. The water can be used for soakaway tests, bulk water storage and clean water for a large welfare unit, where a mains water supply isn’t available.

6000 Gallons Bulk Water Tank Trailer

 

When not delivering our H2O tanks it can then are used as a 6000 gallon vacuum tanker. The Vacuum tank trailer has the capacity to carry 6000 gallons of wet waste with a suction depth of approx. 6 metres. This means it can suck up wet waste from a septic tank easy. Most domestic septic tanks can only hold 1000 Gallons of wet waste but some industrial septic tanks can hold much more than a 1000 gallons. But with our 6000 Gallons septic tank emptying fleet, Tardis Environmental can make short work of any size septic tank.

Which is Better Plastic or Steel Waste Tanks?

What are Waste Holding Tanks?

Waste Tanks are basically tanks that hold waste. Waste tanks are usually located underneath a welfare unit or a Portable Toilet Block and will collect any waste water. The Waste water could be from the toilets or even the sink from the canteen of the welfare unit.

Why Choose a Steel Waste Holding Tank over a Plastic Waste Tank?

waste tank

  1. Our own mild Steel Waste Holding Tanks are made from 4mm – 6mm mild steel.
  2. We can fabricate Waste Tanks in all sorts of different sizes from our smallest 50 gallons tank all the way up to 1500 Gallons
  3. Can be placed under a welfare unit unlike a plastic waste tank.
  4. Convenient Lifting Eyes.
  5. Will not get damaged being moved about or get a split from over use. Which could leak toxic waste water into a river and pollute and kill the surrounding wildlife, which would then mean that the EPA could step in and take you to court and fined!
  6. 6inch inspection hatches to allow easy waste removal
  7. Steel Waste Tanks can survive any weather. Plastic tanks if full can split and leak in the winter.

So if you would like a long lasting strong waste tank, that can be placed under a welfare, fabricated to your needs with convenient lifting eyes then call Tardis Environmental Today  on 0800  7840 589

Portable Toilets have an essential Role!!

Did you know that until 2005, the cardinals had to endure Spartan like conditions in makeshift “cells” that was close to the Sistine chapel? The cardinals had to sleep on hard beds and were also issued with chamber pots to use as toilets. But Pope John Paul ll changed all that with the construction of a massive five storey guest house that has 130-rooms, this is located near St Peter’s – Domus Sanctae Marthe (St Martha’s House).

Even with the construction of the five storey St Martha’s House (Domus Sanctae Marthe), the cardinals still have it rough when voting for a new pope. Antonio Paulucci who is the director of the Vatican Museum told Catholic News Service the other week “I believe they may be installing some Portable Chemical Toilets inside the chapel”

Here are Five Fun Facts You May Not have Known about Portable Toilets

  1. There were 5,000 portable restrooms at Obama’s inauguration.
  2. A portable toilet will uses 90% less water than a conventional toilet.
  3. The first toilet cubicle is usually used least. This makes it the cleanest toilet in a row.
  4. Toilets are flushed more times during halftime super bowl than any other time of the year.
  5. The U.S. spent over $100,000 on a survey just to determine whether it was more common to put the toilet paper in the holder with the flap facing the front or behind. The flap in the front is the most popular.

Tardis Toilet to Star in its own short film!

Tardis Environmental has teamed up with the University of Wolverhampton to create a short 30 second/ 1 minute video.

This was the original Story we and the University came up with.

Portable Loo Hire

 

A man is sitting in a park bench. He glances over to the side. A woman sitting on a picnic blanket looks coy and smiles at the man. They exchange flirty looks. The man gets up and begins to walk. The woman fixes her dress trying to impress the man. The man walks straight past her and into the Tardis Portable toilet. The woman looks shocked.

Portable Toilet

We have modified the story a bit as the weather wasn’t always in our favour. The Location was at West Park in Wolverhampton. We started filming around 10.30 and were finished before noon on the 18th March. We had two actors, one from the Performing Arts & Leisure in Walsall and our very own Charlotte from the Hire Desk at Tardis.

 

The Film has now gone off to be edited and finalised and should be with us soon.

So watch out for our upcoming short film.

Need more than 4000 Gallons of Bulk Water?

If you need bulk water at a construction site or at an event/festival and need it to be more than 10,000 litres. Then why not hire out, our 4000 gallons H2O bulk water tank. Our H2O Tank can be taken to any site as the H2O tank is towable. The H2O Tank is great for Bulk Water Storage and bulk water supply at an event or construction site.

Need even more fresh water?

Try our 6000 gallon tanker. This is the largest amount of fresh clean water we can deliver straight to your site. This is great if your site is not near a mains water supply and you have a large welfare unit that needs a bulk water supply.

All water that is delivered is clean fresh water and is not for drinking. If you require drink water, you will need to hire one of our special drinking bowsers. All our drinking bowsers are cleaned and sanitised before we put drinking water in the Bowser. All our drinking bowsers are only used for drinking water. Not even fresh clean water is a loud to be put in our drinking bowser. Drinking water is keep inside the bowser is okay to use for 48 hours, after that the bowser will need fresh drinking water and a sterilised wash down before it can be used again.

Don’t worry if you need water for washing hands as fresh clean water is fine to use for washing. It’s just not safe enough for drinking.

Tardis are Experts in anything that involves water whether it is waste water from a septic tank emptying service  or clean fresh water and even drinking water.
