Why Septic System Abandonment Is Necessary

When a property connects to a public sewer, state law requires the proper abandonment of the existing septic system. If not handled correctly, unused septic tanks can collapse, cause sinkholes, or contaminate groundwater.

Our team handles every step of the process, including pumping, crushing, filling, and properly documenting the abandonment to keep you in compliance.
