What is a "cesspit"?
A cesspit is a large, sealed container or pit used to collect and store waste, particularly sewage, from a building or household. It is typically found in areas without a direct connection to a sewer system. Cesspits are designed to hold waste until it can be removed and disposed of properly. Unlike septic tanks, cesspits do not treat the waste but only store it, requiring regular emptying by a waste management service to prevent overflow or contamination.
Example
The house was built in a rural area, so it relies on a cesspit for waste storage.
They had to call a waste removal service to empty the full cesspit in the backyard.
The old property had a cesspit instead of a modern septic system.
