Get your phone book out and call them up in your own locale.

I live in Massachusetts and it just cost me $190. The tank hadn't been pumped in 12 years since new system was installed. Filled his truck one and a half times! Since I live alone, was told that I'd probably have to have it pumped again in 10-12 yrs!

It really depends where you live. Try the phone book and ask the service people listed.

I live here in Indiana, what you need to do is call a few local septic guys & get a price. Generally its between 100 & 150 depending if its winter or not. In the winter they charge more. If you uncover the lid yourself they usualy take a few bucks off, ask before you do it. I have a high water table so I have the septic guy out here every year. Hope this helps.

I live in Texas, and only had mine pumped, grease trap included. It cost around $150-200.

Our price was about $540 from Rotorooter. We had to declog and replace the concrete lid --Other places might be cheaper. We have to keep up a savings account just for the septic tank to be pumped every three years or so. Hope this helps some. Racer
