E.E. Bartlett Ltd

E.E. Bartlett Ltd is a family-run business that was formed in 1979. The business traces its roots to the early 1930s as a small agricultural haulage company. In the mid-1980s, the company relocated to the Eurocentre Industrial Estate in Great Yarmouth.

It launched its septic tank emptying division in 1995. The company celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2024, and its septic tank emptying division celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2025. The company serves households and businesses across East Anglia. It provides septic tank emptying, cesspit emptying, cesspool emptying, sewage treatment plant emptying and pump station desludging services across Norfolk and Suffolk, as well as tankering services to wastewater companies and utilities companies.

In the Great Yarmouth area, E.E. Bartlett Ltd is known for septic tank emptying and sewage disposal, and customer accounts consistently highlight reliability built over long relationships. A number of reviewers describe using the family-run business for decades, in some cases more than twenty years and three generations, with staff members such as Ben named for particular praise for their polite and helpful manner. Punctuality features strongly: one customer records a crew arriving within two hours to clear a blockage and empty an overflowing tank after another firm failed to attend, while another notes a visit made the very next day.

Clear communication from the first phone call is a point that comes up often, alongside honest assessments of problems such as a suspected soakaway and sound advice on how to investigate further. Tidiness also draws comment, with drives left undamaged and sites left spotless after collections. Customers describe fair, reasonable pricing alongside the quality of the completed work, and the friendly, respectful attitude of the team receives frequent mention. Routine tank emptying, blocked systems and general drainage difficulties are the tasks most commonly described.
