What Is Cesspool Pumping?

A cesspool is an underground waste collection pit that stores and slowly disperses wastewater. Over time, solids build up and reduce the cesspool’s ability to function properly. Cesspool pumping removes these accumulated solids and liquids using high-capacity vacuum equipment, restoring system performance and preventing dangerous overflow or contamination.

Regular pumping protects your property, your health and the surrounding environment.

When Do You Need Cesspool Pumping?

Call Apollo if you notice:

• Slow drains or gurgling noises
• Sewage backing up into sinks, tubs or toilets
• Standing water or soggy areas near the cesspool
• Strong sewage odors outdoors or indoors
• Overflow around the cesspool lid or pit
• A cesspool that hasn’t been pumped in several years

Cesspools rarely give early warnings. When something feels off, it’s smart to call right away.

Emergency cesspool pumping is available 24/7 at (928) 726-1199! 

Our Cesspool Pumping Process

We use industry-leading equipment and trained technicians to deliver safe, effective pumping every time.

System Location & Inspection: We locate the cesspool, evaluate its condition and check for structural or drainage issues.

High-Capacity Pumping: Our vacuum trucks remove liquid waste, solids and sludge buildup.

Interior Cleaning (as needed): If the cesspool walls need additional cleaning, we remove residue to improve absorption and performance.

Performance Check: We assess how the system is draining and look for signs of failure, blockages or groundwater impact.

Honest Feedback & Recommendations: We clearly explain what we found and recommend the best next steps.

How Often Should My Cesspool Be Pumped?

Most cesspools should be pumped every:

• 3-5 years for residential properties
• 1-3 years for high-use homes
• Annually or semi-annually for commercial, rental, or agricultural properties
  

Your pumping frequency depends on household size, system usage, soil conditions and local groundwater levels. We can evaluate your system and recommend a schedule that protects your property long-term.

What Does Cesspool Pumping Cost?

Cesspool pumping varies based on:

• Depth and accessibility
• System size
• Amount of waste
• Condition of the cesspool
• Distance traveled
