Mobile Toilet Feces Removal Worker

Admin September 23, 2026

Mobile toilet feces removal workers have different job manifestations depending on the scenario.

In urban environments, these workers mainly provide professional services such as septic tank cleaning, pipe dredging, high-pressure cleaning and pipe unclogging, and sewage and feces suction. They serve residential communities, schools, hospitals, factories, development zones, and other places, targeting the cleaning of septic tanks, sewage ponds, and hotel grease traps. These service providers use professional feces suction trucks, high-pressure cleaning trucks, and other equipment. The feces suction truck uses powerful suction to extract feces and sewage from the septic tank and transport it to designated disposal sites. The high-pressure cleaning truck uses a high-pressure water gun to clean the pipes, removing dirt and blockages from the inner walls of the pipes to ensure smooth flow. This work mode helps maintain urban environmental hygiene, preventing the leakage of sewage and feces from contaminating soil and water sources and safeguarding residents' quality of life.

In the railway sector, there are specialized railway sewage suction workers responsible for cleaning the feces in train toilet collection tanks. Taking the Toilet Collection Group of the Depot Inspection Workshop of the Baotou Rolling Stock Depot of China Railway Hohhot Group Co., Ltd. as an example, a team like the one Chen Wei is in is responsible for the sewage suction tasks of 23 trains with over 370 passenger cars arriving at or passing through the Baotou area every day. They need to work in the gap of less than 50 cm between the train and the platform. The working environment is extremely arduous, as they not only have to endure high temperatures but also bear the pungent odor. Moreover, they must quickly complete the sewage suction work for more than ten toilet collection tanks within a dozen minutes. Each shift, the whole team of four trucks has to suction over 40 truckloads and handle more than 160 tons of feces. The work of railway sewage suction workers is crucial for ensuring a comfortable travel environment for passengers. Without their hard work, the sanitary conditions on trains would be unimaginable.

In addition, there are some young practitioners who have joined the feces removal work, such as Pan Haonan. He charges by the truck and mainly carries out feces suction operations in the fecal pits of shopping malls, residences, and public toilets in the city. During peak business periods, he can receive 5 to 10 orders a day, earning over a thousand yuan daily. This work mode is relatively flexible, with income obtained according to market demand and business volume.
