How does the When Should I Pump tool work?

You answer a few quick questions about your tank and household. We show the answer immediately — no contact info required. It's general guidance; every tank and household is different.

What if I have a warning sign?

Any warning sign — slow drains, sewage odors, gurgling pipes, soggy or extra-green grass over the drain field, or sewage backup — means call now. Backups get worse and more expensive fast.

How often should I pump my septic tank?

Most household tanks need pumping every 3 to 5 years. Tank size, the number of people in the home, and whether you use a garbage disposal all change that.
