Rust at the Bottom of Well?

The rust I am dealing with is at the bottom of my well, the well was not used for 5 years. When I first started using it, it ran clear with a iron taste to it, but clear. I let the outside hose run for awhile and big amounts of rust like sand came out the hose, enough to leave about 1/4 inch on side walk. Do I need to pull the well pump?

I'm having the exact same problem, the tub and toilet are orange. It also sat with no use for a couple years. Any suggestions at all? Does anyone else have experience with iron out?

I use Iron Out instead of bleach for my whites. To get the rusty orange color off the sink, toilet and tub, we use Barkeepers Friend best cleanser we've found so far.

There is a product called Rust-X that might help.
