[Pristine Clean]

Hi Guys,

After you guys have cleaned a carpet what do you do with the dirty water that have chemicals in?

1. Do you take it to a waste disposal site?
2. Tip down a drain / or in a boarder where the flowers grow
3 Other

What are you suppose to do with it by law

I think, by law, it needs to go down a foul drain into the sewer network.

[expro]

Put it down the toilet/ sewer

[clinton]

Outside waste drain on the clients property..

[robert meldrum]

There are rules in place, the main one being................you must not empty directly into roadside drains as they feed directly to rivers and could kill fish and other animals.
The major flaw in this,  is that the waste from, car washes / graffiti removal / stone cleaning and other activities runs straight onto roads and down the drains in massively high volumes compared to what a carpet cleaner produces.
Personally...........I've always used a toilet if available, otherwise, over grass or a handy shrubbery.

Auto pump out on Truckmount to Foul Drain at customers property or Foul Drain at home/unit.

surely that'd leave the grass covered in the carpet?

[Paul Heath]

Down here in cornwall we empty our tanks at a factory called Ginsters ...

[Mike Halliday]

I auto pump on to what ever is within 15ft of the van, that could the lawn, flowerbeds, road gutter or customers drive it is just dirty water all the fluff is caught with a pre-filter.

My waste water goes to a local brewer, he adds a dash of cheap vodka to it and calls it "Spingo"

[Carpet Dawg]

 I've done this for years even at my own house which is cleaned at least every 6 weeks and never seen any damage to the garden or shrubs.
