Charging for Mobile Toilet Sewage Trucks

Admin October 17, 2026

There is no unified standard for the charging of mobile toilet sewage trucks. It is usually determined comprehensively based on factors such as the amount of waste processed, vehicle type, operation duration, service cycle, and operating conditions. The following are common charging models and influencing factors:

I. Common Charging Models

  1. Charging by the amount of waste processed
    • Charging per ton: The cost of treating each ton of sewage is approximately 30-50 yuan, suitable for cases with a relatively small amount of waste processed in a single instance.
    • Charging by the amount of fecal matter extracted: For small fecal extraction trucks (5-8 cubic meters per trip), the base cost is approximately 300-600 yuan. If the amount extracted in a single trip exceeds 10 cubic meters, the excess is charged at 80-150 yuan per cubic meter, with the specific price adjusted according to the sewage concentration and on-site conditions.
  2. Charging by vehicle type or number of trips
    • Charter service: The cost for a single trip with a 3-ton capacity vehicle is approximately 500-800 yuan, suitable for centralized cleaning in residential areas or restaurants.
    • Charging for vehicles with fixed capacities: A 5-ton sewage suction truck charges approximately 500-800 yuan per single trip, while a 10-ton sewage suction truck charges approximately 800-1200 yuan per single trip. For household users, the cost per single trip by vehicle is approximately 450 yuan.
  3. Charging by operation duration Applicable to long-duration operation scenarios, the cost is approximately 200-400 yuan per hour, with the specific price fluctuating according to the vehicle type and operation difficulty.
  4. Monthly or annual service packages For long-term cooperative clients, fees can be negotiated, usually with discounts based on service frequency and the amount of work. For example, the fixed cost per unit for property management areas is approximately 1348 yuan.

II. Key Factors Affecting Charging

  1. Distance: Operations in remote areas may incur additional transportation fees, with an extra charge of 20-50 yuan for each kilometer beyond a certain distance; after exceeding 10 kilometers, an additional 3-5 yuan is charged per kilometer.
  2. Operation difficulty: Operations in basements cost 50% more than those on the ground. If the sewage contains impurities or special pipes (such as those mixed with oil or construction waste) make cleaning more difficult, the cost may increase by 30%-50%.
  3. Treatment requirements: If solid waste needs to be filtered and separated, the cost doubles.
  4. Time cost: Service fees increase by 20% during nights or holidays. For urgent operations, an additional rush fee is charged, with the specific amount negotiated by both parties.
  5. Regional economic level: Charges in first-tier cities are generally higher than those in second- and third-tier cities.
  6. Environmental protection requirements: In some areas, special treatment qualifications are required, resulting in a 15% increase in costs.

The actual charging should be comprehensively evaluated based on specific service needs, operating conditions, and regional differences. It is advisable to clarify the details with the service provider in advance to avoid disputes.
