Drainage, Jetting & Tanker Services

Fire Water Removal

Water and foam used to fight a fire has to go somewhere — and it rarely leaves clean. Our emergency team responds 24/7, so MacWaste removes contaminated fire water from sites across Northern Ireland by vacuum tanker any time you need us, keeping it out of drains and watercourses.

Fire Water on Site Right Now? We're Available 24/7

Contaminated fire water can't sit around waiting for office hours. Our emergency team takes call-outs any time, day or night, every day of the year — call 028 4177 3100 now.

Why It Can't Just Drain Away

Fire water picks up smoke residue, unburnt product, foam concentrate and whatever else was on site, and is classified as contaminated or hazardous waste. Letting it reach a surface water drain or watercourse is a pollution incident in its own right.

24/7 Vacuum Tanker Response

We attend post-incident, any time of day or night, or work alongside the fire service and site management during the clean-up phase, to pump standing fire water from yards, bunds, basements and containment areas into vacuum tankers for removal.

Recovered fire water is taken to our own licensed facilities and disposed of under the correct waste classification, with full documentation for your insurer, the fire service and environmental regulators.
