Septic tank emptying cost

Many people don’t pay attention to how important is to maintain their septic tanks properly. The first four or five years there won’t be many signs that the tank is full, but when you exceed that time without being necessary, it’s completely normal that the tank won’t work at its 100% and you will notice a few problems in your property related to it.

The most common one is the foul odor, which most people think is normal and a reason to avoid installing septic tanks, however, they are completely wrong. If your tank emits a foul odor is because it is full or is having problems with something during the treatment process. This is common when people don’t maintain it properly and believe that if it can last four years without being it, then it should last two more or so.

No, one hundred times no. If you want to keep your septic tank functional and working perfectly, you need to empty it every two or three years. Of course, there are other services your tank needs such as cleaning and inspection. However, septic tank emptying is one of the most important and sometimes needs to be done more often than other services.

You don’t have to wait until your tank is full to call a professional to empty it, instead, you should keep a note in your mind that your tank requires the service once it is around 30 or 50% full.
