How to decommission septic tank
My house has been connected to the sewer for many years. I would like to
put an above ground pool in the back yard, but there is an old septic tank there and I'm concerned that it could collapse under the weight. What is the proper way to decommission the tank and about how much would that cost? Getting a large truck to the tank is not a problem. Thanks Dante |

Thanks Dante Just have a back hoe come in, remove the lid, then fill it with gravel and relandscape the area. He may not need a back hoe. Septic tank servicers routinely gain access to the tank by using a big pry bar. Sand will do the same as gravel and is easier to work with. Red |
