Septic Tank Pumping questions

How often should I pump my tank?

EPA guidance is every 3 to 5 years for a typical household. More people, garbage-disposal use, or a smaller tank shortens the interval.

What raises the price?

A buried or hard-to-find lid, heavy sludge from a long gap since the last service, and emergency/after-hours calls all add cost.
