Called to have Septic tank pumped for the first time in 12 years. Was quoted $600. They arrived, removed the Septic tanks lid, and stated that my septic system was working perfectly and didn't need to be pumped. I was surprised, but grateful that I didn't need their services......and then he said, "how about $500?". I replied, "but you didn't have to pump it". He went on about his time and expenses just for driving the 11 miles to my place, and so that, yeah, $500 ought to just about cover it. Went ahead and paid it so that I didn't have to get into a legal battle. Don't recommend them. I DO recommend getting an inspection BEFORE ordering an actual pumping service. You might not need to get pumped, and you will pay a lot less this way. read more
