Gully Tanker and Cleaning Services
We offer specialised gully tankers and cleaning services to remove debris, silt, and other waste from entering the drainage system on roads and streets. A gully tanker is a highly developed, multifunctional machine ideal for working on mainline sewers, gullies and drains. It has a large hydraulically powered hose reel and a heavy-duty unloader valve which allows more responsive jetting control over a larger period of operation.

Mersey Rod’s gully cleaning vehicles can tackle a wide range of commercial services including forecourts and interceptors, and we always ensure compliance with licences and environmental standards.

Maintaining road infrastructure is key to managing a safe environment as the build-up of surface water on the road can put users at risk and cause a number of problems associated with standing water.

It depends where the gully is situated but gully waste typically comprises of small stones, sand, gravel, grit, vegetation, litter and hydrocarbons with organic matter mixed in. Gullies can get clogged with an amalgamation of debris and it is important to remove this to prevent flooding. Mersey Rod can remove all types of gully waste in line with all environmental regulations.
This can depend on a number of factors; where the gully is situated and what type of debris it is exposed to. Gullies should be cleaned on a risk and cyclic basis i.e flood location gullies should be cleaned at least 3 times a year. Where there is leaf fall, gullies should be cleaned every autumn and if you live in an area that has heavy rainfall or you notice that debris falls onto the grate, you should clean the gully every 4 months. Planned preventative maintenance is the key to a healthy drainage system.
A domestic gully drain will dispose of surface water from your garden, rainwater from your guttering, and grey wastewater from your property. These liquids can create unpleasant odours. A device called a ‘trap’, seals off this waste. This process also stops groundwater from entering the wastewater network. If the groundwater enters the wrong network, and there is a blockage, it can cause overflowing, which could damage your property.
Additionally, for commercial premises, the drainage system needs to be kept clear to avoid flooding and stock damage, avoiding costly downtime and bringing business to a standstill. Mersey Rod can assess your premises and remedy potential drainage issues.
