Frequently Asked Questions
+ How large of a tank can you pump?
We have three vacuum trucks with a 2500 gallon (11 m3), 2000 gallon (8 m3), and 1000 gallon (4 m3) capacity. We can pump septic tanks and holding tanks of all sizes. The most common tank sizes we pump are 500-1500 gallons.
+ When does my tank need to be pumped?
If you have sewage backing up into your home or your toilets are no longer flushing these are sure signs that you have a clog in your system or the septic tank is totally full. If you notice foul sewage odors from your drain field or notice water is beginning to pool up then this is also a sign your tank should be pumped and the system also needs to be inspected.
+ How often should I pump my tank?
Pumping may depend on the size of your family. A family of 4 should have their tank pumped about every 2 years. A 2-member household should be pumped every 3 years. Systems with larger families, families that use their laundry and their garbage disposals frequently should be pumped on a yearly basis. Pumping frequency may also depend on the type of system the house currently has. Regular pumping is cost effective as it extends the life of your leach field.
+ Will you be able to reach my septic tank?
Our trucks are equipped with 150' hose reels for the vacuum hose. If we can get our truck to within 150' of your septic tanks we can pump them out. If you think the distance will be further than 100', please let us know and our driver can come with hose extensions.
+ Is my property too small for your unit?
Our small and nimble 1000 gallon (4 m3) truck is capable of navigating the tightest of areas while reaching those hard-to-reach spots, making it ideal for any location!
+ Will you make a mess on my property?
No, we always try and leave zero trace of our vsit. Our trucks are new and very well maintained so we won't be leaking oil or sewage anywhere on your driveway. In cases where we need to expose the tank lids you might have some small dirt piles left over.

“We rented the portable washrooms and a few regular porta-potties for our outdoor wedding. I couldn’t be happier with the service. The trailer potties are basically a nice, real bathroom with running water and a big mirror. They even decorated them with fresh flowers and had them smelling great. The trailer washrooms actually stole some thunder from us during the event! Everyone loved them! The guys dropping them off were quick and efficient in their work. We couldn’t be happier - thank you!” - Jennifer V
“I have nothing but good things to say about these guys. They came early, did the job quickly and efficiently and were gone before I knew it. The pricing was the lowest of the other 3 competitors I called too. I'll be using them again.” - Joe Z
