Septic pumping company with small 4x4 pumping truck, Lanark Highlands

[MikePal]

Anyone have any other ideas, or can point me in the direction of some resources to help me solve this problem?

Worse case you can always rent a sewage pump from home depot and pull it up into a 500 to 1,000 gal tank on the back of you're pick up and then dump it at an RV site. Small investment that will pay for itself in the long run.

I used a shopvac to empty the holding tank on my daughters 40' trailer...not fun but worked HaHa..

Well who pumped it before now? You'd be surprised where some of the honey wagon jockeys can go.

I just bought the place last fall. The previous owner had the system installed but never had it pumped out. Naturally, that was a red flag to me, but I had the system inspected before I bought the place, and it checked out just fine - no issues with the tank or septic field.

Most of the companies that I have seen in Ottawa seem to have a small truck

Who in particular are you thinking of?

Couldn't have been much of an inspection if they didn't pump it. It's usually part of the closing to have it pumped. I wouldn't worry about it if it is relatively new there won't be a lot of sediment. I've gone 10 years plus without a pump out with no adverse effects just watch what goes down there and no Charmin T.P.

I may have to just get some companies to do site visits and tell me if they can get any of their trucks in. The "road" to my cottage is more of a trail. There are some pretty tight corners, and the part leading right to the cottage is steep; so steep that my kids used it as a tobogganing hill during the winter.

This may be the best bet, they may be able to run enough hose to pump it without getting the truck all the way in. I've seen tractor trailers wheel roads you'd think twice about driving a pickup down, you might find somebody up to the challenge. Of course they will probably charge accordingly.

Try contacting porta potty rental companies. They usually have F550 size trucks to service porta potties.

How many feet are you off of the main road?
A requirement for mine is 150 feet of hose and I know they can carry another 50 feet I'm sure.

If you have a neighbor find out who they use .

I drive a 20 ft box truck and like mentioned I have gone on stuff people would be afraid of in a pickup truck lol. Been down some pretty interesting trails that are actually Rds lol.

You would be amazed where a truck can go as long at it has the clearance and the ground in hard it should be good.
