- Pump up to 1000 gallons (additional fee per 100 gallons) Upon arrival I spoke with the homeowner and she made me aware that she needed to get her septic tank pumped in order for the sewer specialist to come and assess her septic system. I then located her septic system and gave her multiple upfront options on getting her septic tank pumped. She decided on option 1 and after signature approval I began pumping the tank until it was clean and clear. Upon completion I cleaned up all tools and materials.
