More details
The working side of the island
Tourlos sits on the bay north of Chora, around the New Port, where the ferries from the mainland and the other islands dock and where cruise ships tie up. Next to it is the marina. On the slopes above there are hotels, apartment buildings and houses with views over the harbour, and along the road there are the cafés, rental offices, workshops and storage yards that keep the island supplied.
That makes Tourlos a mix of hospitality and commercial work. We empty septic and holding tanks for hotels and apartments, clear blocked drains in cafés and offices, and take on custom jobs for businesses whose premises are not on the sewer or that need temporary tanks emptied.

Timing around ferries and cruise ships
The New Port has its own rhythm. When a ferry comes in, the road along the harbour fills for a while with taxis, buses, rental cars and people on foot, and on cruise days the traffic towards Chora is heavy for much of the day. A tanker stuck in that queue helps nobody, so we schedule Tourlos jobs between arrivals or early in the morning.
Hotels and apartments on the hill above the port are reached by steep, winding streets with limited room to turn. When you book, tell us where the tank is and where a truck can stop, and we will bring the right truck and enough hose. Our base in Marathi connects to Tourlos by the ring road around Chora, so we avoid the centre of town.
A dependable partner for businesses
Businesses in Tourlos need a supplier who keeps to a schedule and comes quickly when something goes wrong. We have been doing this since 1995 with a fleet of 6 vacuum tankers, and for emergencies we usually reach Tourlos within 1 to 2 hours.
Every load goes to the licensed municipal wastewater treatment plant of Mykonos (DEYA Mykonou). For regular collections or a one-off job, call or WhatsApp +30 693 673 2110.
