Rural Septic Tank Systems
Sewage, Wastewater & Organic Waste
Save up to $900 per year on power consumption
Approved in VIC, NSW, QLD, SA, ACT and NT, our simple worm technology delivers a natural, eco-friendly alternative to traditional sewage and wastewater systems.
From farms and horse studs to camping grounds and remote properties, we provide customised wastewater and organic waste solutions for all rural applications.
Non-mechanical and simply engineered, the system converts sewage into reusable liquid fertiliser for gardens, lawns and bushland. It also reduces organic waste sent to landfill by up to 90 percent.
Working with naturally occurring organisms, our proven worm technology improves soil quality and supports sustainable land management.
Key advantages of our Rural Septic Tank
Secondary Wastewater Treatment Certified
We are very excited to announce this accreditation, particularly as our Worm Farm Waste System achieved compliance within the first week of testing without any modifications to our original design. The results prove our system has always delivered a high-quality level of effluent.
The original A&A Worm Farm Waste System is now accredited for secondary AS 1546.3:2017
No Smells
Our Residential Septic Systems do not have a septic smell. The liquid which leaves the system is clear, odourless, aerated and contains worm castings and worm eggs which will benefit your garden.
Low Power Consumption
If your rural site is on a hill, a non-powered gravity septic system may be suitable. On flat sites we install a small sump pump to disperse the worm liquid from the system to the effluent disposal area. The pump is only activated on demand for a couple of minutes when required. The cost is approximately $175 per year.
Environmentally Sustainable
Using a single chamber, non-mechanical system, this simple worm technology processes residential sewage, wastewater and organic waste, converting it into a reusable clear, aerated liquid fertiliser for your plants.
Up to 90% less organic waste could leave your site for landfill. Imagine if every household in the country saved up to 90% of the organic waste they dispose into landfill, we would not have the landfill issues we now have.

People Are Talking About Our Eco-Friendly Septic System
Strongly Recommend
We built our new farm house in the Megalong Valley in the Blue Mountains in 2011 and installed a worm farm at the recommendation of our builder. It was considered so much better than a septic system for a range of reasons.
It has operated smoothly, and with no problems since then.
I would strongly recommend the system for anyone in our circumstances.
It is testament of the strength of the product and it’s relevance that you are still operating after 26 years.
Thank you

Best Decision We Made
I just wanted to say, putting in a worm farm waste system instead of the councils recommended pumped UV treatment plant has got to be one of the best decisions we ever made when we were building.
Ours has been running smoothly for about 10 years now. (I think). Has absolutely no bad smell at all and doesn’t require any electricity or on going maintenance costs to keep operating properly.
It took a lot of research at the beginning to find you guys and to convince council and builders it was a good system back then, but I’m glad we got it through.

The Smart Choice
We’ve had our system for over 2 years now and it’s been the smart choice of the septic systems we looked at.
The running costs have been minimal and its needed no maintenance.
It’s been excellent using the system day to day including the disposal of our organic waste.
Big plus for the environment as well. Highly recommend this septic tank system to anyone.

Do You Know Your Septic Tank Regulations
Onsite wastewater management systems (Septic Tank Systems) are used on residential, community, rural and commercial premises. In each state of Australia the regulations for a onsite wastewater treatment can be very different.
That’s why we have added all the councils we have dealt with since 1996 with links to help you understand your local council septic tank regulations. Your local council will also be able to assist when it comes to understanding your septic system cost.
About The Humble Frog
We use the frog as a mascot on our website, brochures and vehicles because they are excellent indicators of local environmental health. Frogs disappear when the environment is under stress and return when conditions improve.
It is not unusual to find frogs living happily in our Eco-Friendly Septic Tank Systems as they die in polluted water. What better proof is there of how healthy the environment becomes when you install one of our systems.
