Question : How much does it cost to have a septic tank pumped in Metro Atlanta area?
I am having to pump my septic tank before we close on our home, even though our alarm isn’t going off. I don’t even know if this needs to be done, but they are requesting it, since the inspector told them to get it done. If anyone knows how much it generally costs in the Atlanta area (we are west ATL) and who you would recommend. Thank you

I have found that this is a competitive business, and they all do it the same way. You can safely make this purchase on price alone. You can save a little money if you’ll dig up the entrance, or at least have it marked for them. Other than that, make some phone calls, and go with the lowest price. This tends to be a business of ma and pa operators, and sometimes you’ll get one that’s hungry for the work. The only way you’ll know is to call around and get prices, then compare.
