The waste management authority collects information on slurry tanks – please fill in the form
Kolmenkierto, the waste management authority in our area, monitors the emptying of septic tanks and closed tanks on properties. Kolmenkierto is now collecting more detailed information about the tanks from owners using an online form.
The survey is intended for individuals who own or live in a property in Tuusula that has a septic tank, closed tank or small treatment plant that requires emptying. The information is needed so that the authorities can verify the accuracy of the emptying data and provide targeted advice.
By responding to the form, you can avoid direct contact from the authorities. The response deadline is 31 January 2026.
Although the SIIRTO register used by the authorities shows which containers have been emptied, the authorities do not have up-to-date information on the types of containers. Therefore, the information must be collected directly from the owners. Tuusula is now one of the municipalities under review.
According to waste management regulations, slurry tanks must be emptied at least once a year, but according to a recent report, half of the properties in the area have not complied with this obligation. An unemptied tank can pose an environmental risk.
The owner orders the emptying from the company of their choice, and a list of companies can be found on the authority’s website.
